Flooding batters Australias state of Queensland

️Flooding batters Australia’s state of Queensland. Cairns, a city of more than 150,000 people known as the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, has been almost entirely cut off by heavy rains brought by the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Jasper, which made landfall last week before stalling over Queensland, authorities say. Some 300 people were rescued in and around Cairns on Sunday, the Queensland State Emergency Service said Monday. No deaths or injuries have been reported, according to authorities.
