- Aerial views of Los Angeles' Pacific Palisades area on Thursday (January 9) showed widespread devastation in the wake of the Palisades Fire, which continues to burn.

Row upon row of burned out structures could be seen from various overhead vantage points as a smoky haze still hung in the air.
The Palisades fire between Santa Monica and Malibu on the city's western flank and the Eaton fire in the east near Pasadena are already the most destructive in Los Angeles history, burning nearly 28,000 acres so far - an area exceeding the size of Disney World - and turning entire neighborhoods to ash. At least five people have been killed, thousands of structures have been incinerated and nearly 180,000 people have been ordered to evacuate their homes, officials said.
The National Weather Service extended Red Flag warnings - issued when the risk for fire is high due to low humidity, high winds and warm temperatures - for Los Angeles and Ventura counties through 6 p.m. Friday.

Has Israel sent aid yet?
😂😂😂
*free palestine*
They will send the IDF
Looks like they bombed it
😂😂😂
No money for water Full money for war
😂
And hired quota and diversity. No joke.
California funds wars? 🤔
No need of money, they wanted to preserve a tiny fish and decided to have no water to protect it.
The best comment.😂
All those billions sent to wars that could have been invested in crises prevention measures.
Not really, the State of California had ample resources to address issues, e.g. firebreaks, preventative burning, brush clearance, and to supply adequate water for firefighting. It chose not to and the City cut the fire budget by over $17,600,000 recently. This has all the hallmarks of being a deliberate choice.
The people of L.A voted for those billions to be sent 🤷🏼♂️
They done it to you!! Saw a video on how they are going to build 15 min zone city control
Nonsense. The Federal gov’t isn’t responsible for in-state prevention measures. Sadly, this is on CA and CA voters
Wonderful, uplifting comment in such an awful time. Well done
Now, LA looks like in Gaza. This is Karma?
Karma gaza 🇵🇸🇵🇸
Or Terrorism.. still the same...
Not Karma!..It’s Two 💩 holes leveled!
Except the ppl in Pacific palisades didn't slaughter 1200 ppl in another neighbourhood and no, LA doesn't look like Gaza since only 0.001% of LA burned down,
so allah is burning a random neighborhood in LA instead of israel? so dumb
nature has the right to defend itself
Na, its going to become the next "Smart City".
@@fx-studioNext time also turn on
oh yeah you believe that shit@@fx-studio
It's Mad that the trees are still standing but the houses are totalled
I'm glad other people noticed this little detail. I'm not sure I have ever seen trees still standing intact after a fire that was literally next to them.
Of course I could be wrong.
Oh well, I guess it just means that they can all be bought for next to nothing now to rent back to people forever.
Still got leaves on the trees.
This is not normal
Why did all the trees survive?!
Directed energy weapons tend to do that.
Feel pain for innocent animals 😢
the trees survived, the squirrels are developing a taste for roast chestnuts.
😂😂😂ohhh shut iwas impressed and what about humans in Gaza
@@hibek2000you were impressed? That’s why no one cares about Gaza 😂
Same :(
U ppl love animals n kill poor innocent ppl all around the world
I seen this type of footage somewhere else tooo. Wow no need of rocket, ammo or bomb.
What a mircale is this.....
Our prayers and condolences to those who lost their homes in Los Angeles, California.
From Gaza, we understand your feelings very damn well, and we pray that no one will experience the feeling of losing a loved one as half of us did.
💯 true
Amen
but bro. america pay the bomb of Israhell, the hell you pity to this evil country?
😂😂😂😂😂
Karma. Native Indians just called, they want their land back. So, since you just lost your house, you can return the land as-is.
Happily the trees are fine
No they are not... 🤦♂ They are just standing because the fire couldn't get inside the tree since it is full of water, but 99% of those trees are dead. Eventually, new trees will grow from the roots, the good thing is that they tend to grow quickly because they already have large roots. I have seen many burned forests in southern Spain.
@@AleHorryso all those trees are dead? No other explanation.
Agree 👍 good thing trees is fine
I stand with the Trees. Glad democracy prevailed.
nature knows how to do its work.
Are u sure it's not Gaza?
All the Islamists keep saying that.
Both Gaza and California asked for their own trouble when the votes.
It’s not, Gaza is way worse like 1000x worse
lol right... way worse but somehow still have access to smartphones and internet.. u know best whats happening in gaza.. are u there now watching over the hostage israeli girls ? hmm didnt think so @Smh_edits1
Initially it looks like Gaza but ya Gaza's destruction is way worse.
God show justice to the world
America is not a superpower but the superpower is my Almighty Allah Taala
so allah is burning a random neighborhood in LA instead of israel? so dumb
Yea, dont bring your imaginary god in here prescribed by a madman, stop this mockery, preach how to be humans first to your own stupid people first
Looks pretty much like Gaza only that this is God made💯
God didn’t make this, careless or heartless people did.
Богом ли?
Jesus made this ....we should blame jesus...who hate trump christian
@@carsinruin6102IDF will send aid don't worry 😢
Blame Hamas.
Stop building with wood and cardboard.
That I always say they still don't think it a problem its cheap
They like cheap stuff, they won't stop
@@freeman041 because, they all BURNed!
Trump didnt promise hellfire in the middle east the same day god burns his country 😂
Israel will send aid don’t worry
A lot of expensive land is now for sale.
May be Israel can use it to expand their territory
@@shab152sk cant believe you can say that lol
doubt it will be for sale people still own it, and will probably rebuild, hopefully in Brick
@barbergraham6812 why not? Israel has desecrated Gaza and it looks like LA, just for the land! They've torn children literally apart and you don't think God's wrath will come upon the people of America. This is just the beginning, but I do feel for the innocent who have lost their homes.
Funny how the insurance companies stopped giving insurance to home owners in the area months before this happened.
God please help all the people who suffered from the fires.
reminiscent of the great fire of London. After that we stopped building our house from wood. Building regs need to be changed
We weren’t obsessed about net zero.
@@Paratus7😂😂😂 you know the great fire of london happened in 1666, before what u call ‘’wokeist net zero’’ we have had housing regulations before people even knew what climate change is
That is really not the cause of this
@avoxyisbetterthanyou net zero is woke? 😂😂😂 Stop being silly.
@ no its not, read what i was replying to
A city near the ocean has a water problem? No it has a management problem.
100 mile an hour brush fire problem... Santa Anna winds... you people posting like you know something... parrot
@thinkaboutwhy you are about as stupid as the news people, is that where you get your info 😅
A lot of Malibu homes next to the beach burned down. Anyway it aint that easy to just use it. The ocean is salty and that will cause alot of other issues from fcking up the fire equipment all the way to environmental problems since the salt needs to go somewhere.
@@kYnTsosave the houses or save the fire equipments. Tough decisions.
@@ittisjartam8913 I'm not an expert, but I would assume that the equipment would stop working before the fire is out. Now you have an ongoing fire and no equipment to stop it...
All wooden houses they look well built and sturdy but they are basicly fancy sheds . All a facade just like all of america
That is about the size of it
That’s why American is “the land of dreams” or “the experiment” because it’s nothing but theory with no practical use
Nope. The facades are made of wood too.
True
Would you say that about Japan? Where they also have earthquakes and build houses out of wood for this reason lol.
My Prayers to all the families...🙏💗🙏
Actually it's not true that the "demand for water caused it to run dry".....they refused to refill the reservoirs and it's because of incompetence.
💯
On point
This above comment is true. The mainstream media are trying to sow a false narrative.
Nonsense.
DEI hire, at least she took a vacation in Ghana
Thumbnail legit looks like it should be a COD map
😂😂😂
It already is in Arma: reforger was just playing a game of it earlier think the map is called “Cali fire” or something along those lines
I'm not going back to Cali ever even digitally
This is what happens when your houses were built by the first 2 little piggies
Not really
Anything to save money
Oh Yeah!
In the midst of all this destruction the houses still standing, are they brick built?
Lmfao 😂😂😂😂
Agreed but this is not the time to joke about this 😭
لا تقلق ان الله معنا .الحرية لفلسطين 🇵🇸
One word : CEMENT : try that
If the government diverts water away, how would that help?
Cement the planks together ?
@@user-ug8wx5er1w ever tried setting cement on fire?
What about earthquake?
👍
Trump said, "I will turn Gaza into hell" and turned Los Angeles into hell.
only god can do as he wish
Trump will start from tomorrow... Just wait
Don't blame Trump, he just got back in office.
1:00 The only house that didn’t burn down
Probably because his made of brick
It's probably The mayor of California's house 🫢
@queenshebaart777 Im from the UK love brick house. However at this heat many would become a clay oven
@@epicmonkeydrunkno, insulation works both ways. Brick houses would be still easier to keep cool than their paper crap. Think of a thermos flask with ice inside.
They paid taxes
The home was fired. The tree still save 😂
It looks like Gaza
What a beautiful view of los angeles
Gosh, it’s apocalyptic! My heart goes out to all affected and the brave services keeping people safe. ❤
What a beautiful view!
Reminds me of how gaza looks
Why they still using timber to build? Devastating for the locals.
It's because lumber is relatively cheap and abundant in the US.
@@crazyadam9281 and now look at the rising expenses from it
Hey it's an arid drought area surely tinder dry wooden houses pass the building regs right???
Houses in California have to be earthquake resistant which brick and stone houses are not.
@@AdolfoBugarin Don't be silly, what do you think the Japanese do? They're home to some of the biggest skyscrapers in the world, and are always suffering from earthquakes. Wooden housing is just cheap crap, there's no reason for it.
This is nothing compare to Gaza
yea.. much more terror came from there..
If America has a friend like Israel, it doesn't need enemies.
سبحان الله من حمى الأشجار واحرق كل شيء اللهم زد وبارك 💙
ههههههه امين
so allah is burning a random neighborhood in LA instead of israel? so dumb
Fire is exercising its right of self defence under Article 51 of the UN charter.
✌️😂🇮🇱💩🪳
I come from Australia and we are one of the most bushfire effected countries in the world and hearing someone talk about bushfires in the middle of winter sounds bonkers to me🥴
You are bonkers, winter or summer, fires don’t care. You need to look at a map or globe to see where California is I think.
@oo0Spyder0oo it is winter in California isn't it?
@oo0Spyder0oo what bonkers is they introduced gum trees in California and are surprised those burn well
@@robertduklus6555 you know those trees evolved to be combustible right? They want to burn.
@@JojoJoget yes long before idiots brought those to california
Parusa sa atin Ng Panginoon Jesus🙁 kailangan Tayo ay Manalangin🙏🙏🙏🌏
Same water problem as in Maui.
Coincidence?
Be on the lookout what people buy the land now.
Like Gates maybe
No, it's not a coincidence. When structures burn, water leaks begin everywhere. You can't maintain water pressure in a system that has widespread leaks.
@@nxbrennanStop moving the goal posts!!! Either it's incompetence on Governor Newsomes behalf because he diverted water which could have been used to keep the fire at bay or it's because this plan has been in place for a while to buy the land dirt cheap from the owners of burnt up land and build or design new companies there
@@UberFoX Famously nobody’s house has ever burned down until they lost water pressure.
I mean I know people that happened to but I’m sure their houses violated the laws of physics.
@nxbrennan Then you cut it off at the supply end. You will still lose alot but then it can be saved for emergency services.
Wildfires in winters is weird af
That's what I am thinking.
God is angry from u ppl
It’s much warmer over there
Not really. Winter is drier. Sure its colder, but on certain days its still easy for stuff to catch on fire
Someone wants you out of there...
Destruction of evidence.
Lots of Hollywood celebs live there
@CaroleP-pj2fc lived
Isreal 😂
yeah, real estate agents
This documentary reflects the shock many of us feel seeing this aerial footage. The scale of destruction is devastating, and it’s a sobering reminder of how vulnerable communities are to such disasters. Do you think advancements in aerial firefighting technology or predictive analytics could play a bigger role in minimizing damage in the future? It’s heartbreaking, but also a call to rethink how we prepare for and combat these fires.

Seems most of the buildings were built with wood...hmm
Unbelievable.
Unbearable.

Ninta poor
Reminds me of something similar in middle east.
You’re going to have to be more specific
@trevorwhitham6742 Gaza brother
Houses completely gone, trees still standing?
Have you never tried to burn green wood?
Living on a tree is more safe than living in these houses😅
Trees have sap. Houses don't. That is the answer. You're welcome.
@@HALLish-jl5mo So the "WOOD FIRE" was human made? At 3 sources at least known yet?
They are standing, but now they are dead trees.
Thats why you build houses with Concrete and bricks and not paper.
Sending prayers to everyone there 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Remember Gaza, this is Azab
All that loss but trees still there?
Nature is stronger than homes built by the lowest bidder!
Growing trees are full of moisture.

@@BonzoKeith I grew up in Roleystone Western Australia look it up, been through bushfires!!
This is nothing let the real heat waves come Earth is burning every year this not normal
This is absolutely totally sad😢
Peace be upon you Los Angeles from Palestine
how many times do these houses in LA need to burn down and be rebuilt before you stop making them out of wood?
yeah I get its hot but you have AC and there are a lot of hot places in Europe like Spain and they don't have wooden houses
Anche noi italiani non abbiamo case di legno, solo piccoli capanni per gli attrezzi in giardino, mi sono stupita che negli usa grandi case di legno siano considerate di lusso, noi europei non riusciamo a concepirlo....
Their build that way because we live in a sand pit and faults.
yeah dude spanish and meditaranian country's been making their houses from stone for only about 4 thousand years as far as we know.
If the fire is hot enough bricks can melt too !
@@DanGarcia-z5w Then why do all the brick and concrete buildings in the area, such as churches and commercial buildings, not collapse from earthquakes? Why do those buildings work but building a house the same way wouldn't? This is a nonsense excuse. The houses are built out of wood and paper because it is cheaper. There is no other reason.
That's just crazy. How can this be allowed to happen? Are all of these buildings built of firewood?
Yes.
You stupid people crack me up.
You'd be surprised what will burn. Shingles have asphalt; oil. All plastics, carpet, furniture foam and fabric; oil. Wood, pets, grandma; oily biopolymers. Buildings burn here in the Northeast, and all that's left is a greasy toxic char-coated husk of structurally compromised bricks. Everybody can't afford a bunker, especially with the giant McMansions Americans think they need to live in.
How come the trees are not burnt?!
Trees are alive so they don't burn as easy as the lumber used to build with especially in a fast moving fire
Did you heard about forest fires?..all the live trees are also burnt to ashes.. clearly fires attack the houses
Trees are not made of amalgamations of cardboard, plastics, and flammable resins and glues.
Why are so many of you asking this stupid question? Trees are moist green wood. Houses are dry wood. DUH
Because it was a fast moving grass fire. Living trees are full of water.
Flimsy american house construction is partly to blame. When you build everything from matchsticks, you cant be surprised when whole neighborhoods burn.
No worries. These were houses of the rich. They own different villas and appartments across the whole country. Anyway, they have money enough to build new ones.
KARMAGEDDON??
Looks like Maui in 2023
I pray the loss of life isn't as bad. Poor Lahaina ❤
Looks like a warzone.
No it doesn't it looks like a clean neat pile of burnt down mansions that have insurance and are owned by millionaires, it looks nothing like a warzone
God is one
Crazy devastation. How do they get back on their feet after that, whole neighbourhoods?

All those houses were worth millions, they got money to start again
@@definitelynotatroll246How do they buy their old keepsakes? Family mementoes? Pictures? Kids first drawing? Sentimental stuff? You idiots are so focused on money you’ve lost all your empathy.
@definitelynotatroll246 bet alot insurance don't pay out
Another fire with no trees hurt
Another stupid brainfart comment....
For a tree to burn it takes a lot of other adjacent burning trees to make it burn in any notable time,all forest fires start from dry woods and sticks or dead trees,never from alive ones,for a living tree to begin to burn it has to have something burn right next to it for a while,and the shitty construction material of most american homes makes them easy to catch fire and burn,which has a *small* upside of them easily and quickly burning up,they dont burn for long enough for the heat to dry the living tree for long enough to make it dry enough to catch fire
Just your brain hurts.
Now these are dead trees!
@whoslistening then what about the white fences clean roads next to blue trashcans next to burning houses. Or melted piles of metal from cars
AS YO SOW, SO SHALL YOU REAP.
REMEMBER IT.
*Build cheap homes -> sell at high price -> natural disaster -> buy cheap land - > repeat*
And that's why Americans pretend bricks don't exist, what a damn dystopia.
Trees escaped unharmed thankfully. Maybe Californians should seriously consider living in treehouses?
Living trees are full of water.
How many more people on here don't just have a think.
You season wood for construction and fire, ie you have to dry it out before it will burn.
Only trees like Olive and Eucalyptus will burn wet, ie not seasoned.
You can oppress weak but when God enters the game even greatest oppressor like US cant defend itself.
I feel bad for innocent lives but when you support oppression, be ready for retribution
Hahaha 🤣🤣 🤣. Yeah right
God punished like how he punished gaza
"I feel bad for innocent lives but when you support oppression, be ready for retribution"
Exactly, that's why you can't really criticize Israel after October 7th.

Why are there so many trees standing?
The trees are charred. The reason they are not obliterated is because they contain a lot of water.

The trees, a lot of trees are full of moisture which stops the fire burning all the way through, also bare in mind some of these trees will slow burn for days.
Like the Banyan Tree in Maui ❤
So what was the purpose of thousands of firefighters and fire trucks???
For show
They put out the fire. It was a problem by the Californian goverment, who should have imvested in prevention methods. The firemen did all that was possible. The wind does not make it easy
A fire engine holds about 3 tons of water. Two fire hoses use about 20 liters of water per second. Just do the math. Without a fire-fighting water supply, fire engines can't cope. It's elementary mathematics!
Every nation has to unite and pray 🙏🙏 for LA..
The fire accident in California reminds me of the incident that happened in Sodom and Gomorrah. (Sodom and Gomorrahare are two cities from the Bible's book of Genesis that were destroyed by God because of their wickedness)
