|Adelaide Hills Mayor Dr Jan-Claire Wisdom has told Sky News the communities affected by the devastating South Australia bushfires will “rise from this more resilient and stronger for the future”.
It comes as South Australia Premier Steven Marshall confirmed 72 houses have been destroyed in the Cudlee Creek fire, up from 15 on Saturday. While at least one person has been killed in South Australia’s bushfires. Dr Wisdom said these bushfires have caused "devastation," saying "it is a sad day". "The message here is that it is not safe, it is not a safe area, if you don’t have to drive in to it, avoid it".
