Los Angeles wildfires devour thousands of homes, death toll rises to 10

Wildfires in Los Angeles have killed at least 10 people and destroyed nearly 10,000 structures. Five fires, including the Palisades Fire and Eaton Fire, have burned over 34,000 acres, making them the most destructive in the city’s history. Thousands, including celebrities, evacuated as strong winds fueled the flames.

President Biden declared a major disaster and pledged full federal support for recovery efforts, while local officials, including Mayor Karen Bass, faced criticism over the response. Efforts to contain the fires are ongoing, with the largest fire only 6% contained. Economic losses are estimated at $135-150 billion.
