California Wildfires: What To Know About The Firestorm Destroying Los Angeles - Over 9,000 Structures Lost, 1000s Evacuated

American business mogul Rick Caruso has sharply criticized Los Angeles’ response to a raging wildfire, calling the city a "Third World Country" due to its inadequate preparations. Caruso slammed the local government's failure to fill water reservoirs, leaving firefighters without the necessary resources to battle the growing flames. As the wildfire swept through the western Los Angeles hillside, including celebrity residences in the Palisades area, evacuation orders were issued for approximately 30,000 residents, with many abandoning their vehicles. California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency, warning of worsening conditions as high winds threatened to further fuel the fire. With over 13,000 structures under threat, Caruso's comments have sparked a broader conversation about mismanagement and the city's readiness to handle such disasters. #LosAngelesWildfire #Wildfire #CaliforniaWildfires #LosAngeles #PalisadesFire #LAFire #CaliforniaWildfire #Wildfires #LAWildfire #WildfiresInLosAngeles #PacificPalisadesFire #CaliforniaFire #LAFireLive #WildfireSeason #CaliforniaWildfireLive
