A search is continuing for a missing baby in South Australia after the child's mother and sibling died falling from a remote clifftop into the ocean near Port MacDonnell. The tragedy occurred at Cape Northumberland, with the father reportedly enduring an agonising wait as authorities work to locate the missing infant. The incident has drawn attention to the dangers posed by the area's rugged coastline.

Emergency services and search teams have been deployed to the remote clifftop location in an effort to find the baby, while the bodies of the mother and the other child, described as a toddler, were recovered from the ocean below. Local authorities in South Australia are continuing investigations into the circumstances that led to the fall, with the family, including the father, awaiting further news as the search operation persists.
