On January 8, CNN reported that many wildfires in Los Angeles California , USA) have killed at least 5 people, seriously injured many people and forced the evacuation of more than 150,000 people .

Specifically, four fires broke out in the coastal area between Malibu and Santa Monica in Los Angeles City, spanning 63 square kilometers earlier this week and have yet to be contained.

The fires destroyed at least 1,000 structures, making it the deadliest fire ever in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department did not have enough manpower to fight the fires because it was “prepared for one or two large fires, but not four at once,” the Los Angeles County Sheriff said.

Initially, strong winds fanned the flames and firefighting efforts were slow. Some progress was made in the afternoon of January 8, when planes and helicopters began to drop water on the flames. However, the district authorities warned that the fires would take time to contain.

“I have never seen anything like it, it was like hell in every direction,” said Stefan Simchowitz, an art dealer.

Mr. Simchowitz returned to his art business in Pasadena on Jan. 8 after evacuating the night before. He found some of his artwork still standing, covered in dust and windblown debris, but he had heard from at least five friends and neighbors whose homes had burned.
