24 people have now died in the wildfires that have swept across the United States

At least 24 people have died in a wildfire that has swept through parts of California, particularly in the Los Angeles area and elsewhere.

The fire continues to rage in the second largest city in the United States, now entering its sixth day. Many areas have been reduced to rubble, making it difficult to believe that people once lived there.

The fire has forced thousands of families to flee their homes, leaving them homeless.

The fire has been fueled by strong winds that have battered the country, with gusts of up to 110 kilometers per hour in some areas.

Although 24 people have been reported dead, there are fears that the death toll could be higher as many people are still missing. The search for those killed in the fire is ongoing.
