WYE RIVER, Australia, Dec. 26 (UPI) -- A bushfire that tore through Wye River and Separation Creek, destroying 116 homes, has yet to be contained and is expected to continue burning for days -- even weeks -- officials said Saturday.
Officials told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation the Christmas day fire ripped through coastal Victoria, taking down mostly vacation homes. The damage is estimated at $38 million, and is expected to rise.
