Police expect the death toll, already the worst since 75 people died in “Ash Wednesday” fires in 1983, could climb further as they search the ruins of wild fires that flared on Saturday and continued to burn north of the city on Sunday.

According to the police, charred dead bodies were found in cars. The said totals of 35 dead bodies were found at different locations at north and east for Melbourne. At least 18 people were also hospitalized with burns.
