A bushfire in north Queensland threatens the town of Forsayth, destroying a home and a railway bridge.

A bushfire in north Queensland, Australia, has destroyed a home and a railway bridge, threatening the nearby town of Forsayth, which has around 100 residents. The fire, burning for five days, has spread over 70 kilometers, fueled by a heatwave and strong winds. Despite efforts by fire crews, water bombing planes, and a helicopter, the blaze continues to move toward Forsayth, prompting a "prepare to leave" warning from the Queensland Fire Department.
