- About 230 hectares—2.3 square kilometres—had burned at the Waiouru Military Training Area by Monday afternoon, according to a Defence Force estimate reported by 1News. By Tuesday afternoon, light rain and lower winds were helping firefighters, but the blaze that returned after being thought extinguished was still being brought under control.
