Australian man ends life of children

An Australian father has been charged with murdering three of his children and attempting to kill the rest of his family in a house fire. The tragic incident occurred in Western Sydney, where a five-month-old girl, a two-year-old boy, and a six-year-old boy lost their lives in the blaze.

Fortunately, three boys (aged four, seven, and 11) and a nine-year-old girl survived, along with their mother. The 28-year-old man now faces three counts of murder, five counts of attempted murder, and one charge of destroying property. The fire has deeply affected the country, especially given Australia’s recent declaration of domestic and family violence as a “national crisis” by the government.
