Firefighters do not have enough water to put out the fire, and the degree of disaster localization is currently 0%.

In California, firefighters tried for a second day to contain a forest fire that reached Los Angeles and its surroundings. At least five people have died and thousands of homes have been destroyed, the BBC reports.

It was learned that the fire, which is now raging in four areas – Peliseids, Eaton, Gerst and Woodley – has been called the most destructive in the history of Los Angeles.

At least 70 thousand citizens were evacuated. 1.5 million Californians were left without power. Firefighters do not have enough water for extinguishing measures, and the degree of disaster localization is 0%. The Pentagon has already sent military aircraft to assist the brigades.

The fire has already destroyed many luxury estates in prestigious areas of Los Angeles, and the home of US Vice President Kamala Harris is included in the evacuation zone. As locals write, there’s almost nothing left of the legendary Malibu coastal spot.

We remind you that a fire broke out on Tuesday at 10:30 local time in the prestigious Pacific Palisades area of ​​Los Angeles.

It was later reported that the fire spread quickly. Due to strong winds, the use of helicopters was not possible. The situation is complicated by a typhoon moving from the desert through the mountains to the coast, bringing strong hurricane-force winds.
