A devastating wildfire in Los Angeles has claimed the lives of at least two people, with over 30,000 residents forced to evacuate their homes. Fires spread rapidly across the Pacific Palisades, Altadena, and Sylmar areas, threatening thousands of homes and causing injuries to several people. Strong winds and dry conditions exacerbated the situation, fanning the flames and leading to significant destruction. Hollywood stars were among those fleeing, with roads jammed as people abandoned vehicles in panic. California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency, while President Biden offered federal support. Firefighting efforts continue as the blaze grows.
