The crew from Fire and Rescue NSW Station 509 Wyoming in Australia recorded this video showing the moment their truck was overrun by the bushfire burning south of Nowra. The crew was forced to shelter in their truck and used a blanket to keep the scorching air from coming in as the fire front passed through.

Two people died overnight, taking the death toll from wildfires since the beginning of October to 11. The bushfires have destroyed more than 4m hectares (10m acres) of land, with new blazes sparked almost daily by extremely hot and windy conditions in bushland left tinder-dry after a three-year drought
