Two bodies found after fire tears through home in Blue Mountains foothills

Two bodies, believed to be children, were discovered inside a home in Bowen Mountain, New South Wales, following a devastating fire that occurred in the early hours of Monday morning. A father and his four other children, aged three to sixteen, managed to escape the blaze. Emergency services were alerted shortly after 2:10 am, with approximately 60 firefighters battling the intense fire, which had already caused structural collapse, preventing immediate rescue efforts. The family was reportedly preparing to move to Queensland the same day, with the mother already en route to their new home. Police are conducting a formal investigation into the incident.
