Since last Wednesday, devastating fire conditions have ignited numerous fires across Victoria, consuming over 410,000 hectares of bushland.
Among these are significant fires still active in Longwood and Walwa, posing ongoing threats.
Striking aerial images from Nearmap reveal the drastic impact on properties in Natimuk and Harcourt, both before and after the intense fires swept through these areas.
In Natimuk, the infernos have led to the destruction of at least 30 homes, while in Harcourt and its vicinity, 54 homes have been lost to the flames.
Victoria Police are diligently investigating the origins of the major fires, including those in Ravenswood South and Walwa. Additionally, arson and explosives units are looking into the Longwood blaze.
In response to the devastation, nearly $200 million in aid has been pledged by federal and state authorities to assist the affected communities in their recovery efforts.
Images captured by Nearmap as part of property intelligence show the impact of the fires.
