Not one,not two but eight children?This is such a tragic event in Australia.What is with the violence that is now so prevalent all over the world in recent times?
Eight children have been found dead at a house in Cairns in northern Queensland, say Australian police.
Police said a 34-year-old woman had been taken to hospital with stab wounds but was stable.
The details of the incident and the woman's relationship to the children, aged between 18 months and 15 years, are not yet clear.
Australian reports say the children were stabbed but police have not confirmed this.
Police said it was a "tragic event" but there was no cause for public concern.
Police have cordoned off the house and detectives are searching the yard of the property in the Manoora suburb.
Cairns Detective Inspector Bruno Asnicar told reporters he could not confirm whether the children were from the same family.
He said police currently believed there were eight children involved but "that may go up or down" as the house was searched.
Police have not yet said if they have made any arrests.
