We extend our deepest sympathies to the families of those who lost their lives, those injured, and all others impacted. This tragic event has understandably left the local community devastated, and our thoughts are with them during this difficult time.
We wish to express our sincere gratitude to the emergency services for their dedication and hard work in the face of such a tragedy, as well as to all those community groups and volunteers who have offered support and shelter to the people affected.
