Severe flooding across eastern Australia has led to significant disruption and damage, impacting communities and livestock.

Heavy rainfall and overflowing rivers have resulted in widespread inundation of farmlands and towns.

A key impact of the floods has been the displacement of cattle. Numerous reports indicate that cattle have been swept away by floodwaters.

These displaced animals have been found on beaches and other unexpected locations, posing challenges for their rescue and the safety of the public.

Authorities are working to locate and rescue stranded cattle, a complex operation requiring specialized equipment and personnel.

The floods have also caused extensive damage to infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and homes, leading to significant economic losses.

Evacuation orders have been issued in several areas, with residents advised to seek higher ground and avoid floodwaters.

The Australian government has announced emergency relief measures to assist affected communities and individuals.

Weather forecasts indicate the potential for further rainfall in the coming days, raising concerns about continued flooding and its impact on affected regions.

The full extent of the damage and the long-term consequences of the floods are still being assessed.
