Calmer winds help Los Angeles firefighters as death toll hits 10
Los Angeles | A pause in the fierce winds that super-charged the ring of wildfires that devastated Los Angeles this week helped crews make progress in bringing the infernos under control on Friday (Saturday AEDT), but strong gusts could return over the weekend, forecasters said.
The fires, which have devastated Los Angeles neighbourhoods on the east and west sides of the city, have so far killed 10 people and destroyed nearly 10,000 structures, with those figures expected to grow.
