迎來2020的第一天,在歡樂的氣氛中,不幸的是,澳洲野火還在燒!澳洲民眾迎來的並非魚肚白般的美麗曙光,而是「血色一片」…
據澳媒報導,維多利亞州的馬拉庫塔小鎮,從12月31日開始,森林野火就越燒越失控,夜晚白天輪番燒不停、火勢控制不住,天空先是被黑煙壟罩,接著不知什麼原因,竟轉變成鮮血般的顏色,一切真實場景宛如撒旦降臨。
Incredible - and frightening - photos are emerging from Mallacoota, a small town in the East Gippsland region of Victoria, where about 4000 people are sheltering near water, protected by CFA tankers. Visit @theage's live blog for updates: https://t.co/VAPFn2Yc20 #vicfires pic.twitter.com/BV8JZqmvBU

甚至有民眾拍到,因熱氣往上蒸騰,有火焰順著空氣氣流飛到空中,也有燃燒中的餘火不斷從空中掉落,形成相當詭異的畫面,民眾也聽到「轟隆隆」的鳴聲。
How terrifying?!

A mother took this photo. Her two primary school aged sons are in the boat with her. They're on the Mallacoota lake with around 5000 people as an out-of-control bushfire heads straight towards them. pic.twitter.com/Owx2uU9SId
馬拉庫塔小鎮當局緊急發布疏散、避難訊號,四千多位民眾攜家帶眷逃離家園,他們也都穿上救生衣、逃至碼頭邊,做好了「跳海避難」的心理準備,因為火勢蔓延的速度相當快且猛烈,從森林延燒至住宅區,恐怕是遲早的事…
