The reality star, 39, clapped back at a fan who accused her family of not donating to theAustralian wildfiresrelief efforts on Twitter Sunday night.

Kardashian West stressed that just because they haven’t spoken out about an issue, doesn’t mean they aren’t doing their part.
“Nothing gets me more heated than to see people think they know what we donated to and to think we have to publicize everything,” Kardashian West tweeted.

Last Wednesday — one day after what was reportedly deemed the deadliest day of the fire crisis since its start — Australia deployed military ships and aircraft to help victims and communities in need.
As of Thursday, there were 2,000 firefighters working in New South Wales alone, with additional help arriving from the United States, Canada and New Zealand.
In addition to the animals, the ravaging blazes have left at least 17 people dead — including two firefighters,Geoffrey Keaton and Andrew O’Dwyer— and many others unaccounted for, as well as forced hundreds from their homes and left thousands stranded,CNNreported.
Millions of acres of land across the continent have also been destroyed from the flames, including 8.9 million acres of land in New South Wales, 2.9 million acres in Western Australia, 1.9 million acres in Victoria, at least 618,000 acres in Queensland, and more than 225,000 acres in South Australia, according to CNN.
