was there a sack of Lawn Fertilizer near that bike? Ammonia Nitrate does nasty things to Steel.
Cat pee does too.. but that's usually isolated to a smaller area.
no amount of magic rust remover will repair the damage in the pics.
the control cables will also be damaged, i'd guess.
best to look for replacement wheels at a Co-op bike shop.
