Massive wildfire rages through Los Angeles hillside, forces 30,000 to evacuate

India Today  

A wildfire raged across an upscale section of Los Angeles on Tuesday, destroying homes and creating traffic jams as 30,000 people evacuated beneath huge plumes of smoke that covered much of the metropolitan area. At least 1,262 acres of the Pacific Palisades area between Santa Monica and Malibu had burned, officials said, after they had already warned of extreme fire danger from powerful winds that arrived following extended dry weather. "We feel very blessed at this point that there are no injuries that are reported," Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley told a press conference. "In other words, this is about as bad as it gets in terms of fire weather," the Los Angeles office of the National Weather Service said on X.
