A drought-stricken southern Queensland town has welcomed a massive donation of hay and water from Australia's Muslim community.
Stanthorpe, which residents fear will run out of water, was the recipient of 438 bales of hay and 190,000 litres of water on the weekend, which arrived on 20 semi-trailers arranged by Muslim Aid Australia.
Spokesperson Riyaad Ally says that the group, which started drought relief assistance in Goondiwindi last year, has received international support to help regional Queenslanders.
