The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection says wildfires have broken out in L.A. and Ventura counties, respectively, and wildfires, especially near Cameronillo in Ventura County, have spread through strong winds and spread into large wildfires.The forest fire, named
The Mountain Fire', started at 9:40 a.m. local time on the 6th and burned 57 square kilometers, 13 times the size of Yeouido, as of 4 a.m. on the 7th.
About 3,500 homes and businesses in the area are threatened by large wildfires, and fire authorities have ordered 10,000 residents to evacuate.
Fire authorities have deployed more than 800 personnel and helicopters to try to extinguish the fire, but the containment rate is 0% as the fire has not been contained at all.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement that fast-spreading fires are threatening lives and that he is responding by mobilizing state resources to protect communities.
