The Sunset Fire has erupted in the affluent Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles, prompting tens of thousands to evacuate. Fueled by wind gusts exceeding 100 mph, the fire has become one of the most destructive in LA's history, devastating celebrity homes and iconic areas. At least five people have died, and over 1,000 structures have been destroyed. The response has drawn criticism, with LA Mayor Karen Bass facing backlash for budget cuts to the fire department and her absence during the crisis.
