Bitter Easter Balance – Seven people drowned in Australia

Date:

On the east coast of Australia, seven people drowned in the sea on the Easter weekend. Six victims were killed in the state of New South Wales alone, including a boy with nine years.

“This is the highest number of drowning accidents for Easter that we have ever included in New South Wales,” the Omroep 9News quoted the head of the Surf Life Saving NSW assistance services. He spoke about an “absolutely horrible weekend”.

Badly between stones
According to a report from the Omroep ABC, the nine -year -old -old had played in South West Rocks between Sydney and Brisbane flushed on rocks by the water when he was suddenly caught between the stones.

Emergency services still tried to free the boys – but he died at the scene of the accident.

Torn from waves in the sea
On Sunday, a fisherman was also torn in the water in the water in the south of Sydney by waves. Even in a suburb of Sydney, a 24-year-old is still missing after a similar accident on Good Friday.

There was also a victim in the southern state of Victoria: a woman was washed in the sea near Phillip Island on a walk of waves.

Has saved more than 100 people
Rescue teams have always been used with rescue helicopters since Friday. More than 100 people in need were saved alive from the sea, said it.
