The Australian bushfires which have been raging on since June 2019, became a major problem for the island country around November when catastrophic fire danger was declared in the Greater Sydney region, followed by the New South Wales government declaring a state of emergency in December.



As per reports, an estimated 10.7 million hectares (107,000 sq km) of land is destroyed, at least 28 people have lost their lives, and a shocking 1.25 billion animals have been killed across the country.



Note: The above stats have been taken from Wikipedia and WWF.

The state of New South Wales is the most heavily affected region, hence ESL Australia is extending all the help that they can towards the NSW Rural Fire Service, which is a volunteer-based firefighting agency and statutory body of the Government of New South Wales.
