Brisbane Under Water

Large sections of Australia’s third largest city are now under water. This video shows how some areas of Brisbane have become completely flooded.

Even though the Brisbane River hasn’t reached the expected peaks, it’s still estimated that around 15 000 homes and businesses have been hit hard by the rising floodwaters.

The official death toll is currently at 15 but is expected to rise in coming days.

Wherever you are in the world, if you’d like to help you can visit the Queensland Flood Appeal website.
