Firefighters and police have had to respond to multiple campfires this evening.
Campfires are not allowed when a Total Fire Ban is in place.
A statewide Total Fire Ban remains in place across the state until 11.59pm (Sat 24 Jan 2026).
Total Fire Bans remain in place for the Northern Country, North Central, North East, and East Gippsland fire districts from midnight tonight (Sun 25 Jan 2026) until 11.59pm.
Illegal campfires put everyone at risk and waste the time of already stretched emergency services who have to respond to deal with avoidable risks.
Those responsible are liable for significant fines and even imprisonment if illegal fires escape and cause damage.

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the tragic events in Bondi last night.

We extend our deepest condolences to the victims, their families, and the wider community.

We also wish to acknowledge and thank the emergency service personnel who responded to this incident, providing assistance and care under extremely difficult and confronting circumstances.

Events like this can be upsetting, even from a distance. If you or someone in your family is feeling shaken, please know support is available and you don’t have to deal with it alone.

Support services:
• Lifeline 13 11 14
• Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636

Please reach out if you need to talk, and check in on those around you.

Our flags will fly at half mast today.
