Firefighter Geoffrey Keaton bravely extinguished the fire, son awarded medal at funeral

Last week, three firemen were killed. Let us tell you that there was a fire in the forests of Australia, which extinguished these firemen, one of them was Geoffrey Keaton. For this bravery, his 19-month-old son Harvie Keaton was awarded the highest service medal after his funeral on Thursday. During this time Harvi was wearing a dress from the Rural Fire Service (RFS).

According to media reports, New South Wales Royal Fire Service Commissioner Craig Physissimons put a medal on Harvey's shirt. The firemen present in the final fire saluted Geoffrey. His body was then buried in the cemetery of Sydney. Keaton, 32, died last month when a burning tree fell on his car. Prime Minister Scott Morrison attended the funeral of firefighter Geoffrey. Morrison was heavily criticized for not taking better action on fire. Actually, he went to Hawaii for a holiday with his family. However, due to increasing pressure from social workers and firefighters, he came back.

If you do not know, then let me tell you that due to the fire in the forests of Australia, the snow of the glaciers of the neighboring country New Zealand has also become vulnerable to its rapid melting due to yellowing. A state of emergency has been declared on Thursday due to the terrible fire at more than 200 places between New South Wales and Victoria states. Along with this, the work of forcibly evacuating people from many towns and cities has started. About 50 thousand people have to live without electricity and without drinking water supply.
