Wildfires Force 50,000 Evacuations North of Los Angeles

More than 50,000 people fled their homes as the explosive Hughes Fire tore through rugged terrain north of Los Angeles, fueled by fierce winds and bone-dry conditions. Firefighters mounted a rapid assault on the blaze, which charred 15 square miles in hours, amid ongoing battles with deadlier fires that have claimed 28 lives. With red flag warnings lingering, the crisis underscores California's relentless wildfire threat.
