Three dead in Australia after torrential rain ravages rural towns

  • On May 22, 2025, authorities discovered a deceased 63-year-old male in a waterlogged residence located in the small rural community of Moto, New South Wales.
  • The floods were triggered by rainfall in just two days that exceeded what normally falls over a period of four months, leading to historic flooding in parts of New South Wales.
  • Nearly 50,000 people, including more than 20,000 in the local government area of mayor Kinnie Ring, have been isolated by rising rivers and engulfed roads, with authorities fearing at least three missing persons.
  • State Premier Chris Minns described the recent event as devastating for the community and announced that 2,500 emergency personnel, along with rescue boats, helicopters, and numerous search drones, have been mobilized to assist those affected.
  • Officials warned the situation remains dangerous as rain continues and some rivers have yet to peak, suggesting further flooding and isolation are possible in the coming days.
