Broj poginulih u požarima porastao na 24 osobe

Broj poginulih u požarima koji bjesne Los Angelesom popeo se na 24, priopćile su vlasti u nedjelju.

Okružni mrtvozornik u Los Angelesu objavio je popis žrtava, a na njemu se nalazi osam osoba poginulih u požaru koji bijesni Pacific Palisadesom te 16 osoba koje su smrtno stradale u požaru u Eatonu.

Unatoč upozorenjima da je svaki pokušaj odlaska na opožareno područje visokorizičan, mnogi ljudi koji su bili prisiljeni napustiti svoje domove okupljaju se na kontrolnim točkama na kojima se nalaze policajci, nadajući se da će dobiti priliku vidjeti u kakvom su stanju njihove kuće i jesu li im domovi uništeni.

"Ne mogu ići kući, jednostavno zato što je opasno", rekao je šef vatrogasne službe Los Angelesa Anthony Marrone.

"Naš je zajednički prioritet... vratiti ljude kući što je prije moguće", izjavio je na konferenciji za novinare, dodajući da to neće biti moguće sve do srijede, zbog najavljenog jačanja vjetra.

"Budite uvjereni, u četvrtak će nam razgovor o vraćanju ljudi svojim domovima biti prioritet", rekao je Marrone.

Neki su stanovnici čekali u redu 11 sati za brzi obilazak pod pratnjom svojih domova u evakuiranom području.

Nekima čak ni uz pratnju nije bio dopušten obilazak kuća, jer su se vatrogasci bojali da bi jak vjetar mogao ponovno pogoršati stanje na područjima zahvaćenim vatrenom stihijom. Zapovjednik vatrogasaca rekao je da će se uspostaviti sustav koji će omogućiti stanovnicima da putem interneta provjere jesu li im domovi uništeni ili oštećeni.

"Znam da je mnogo ljudi u mom okrugu razočarano i frustrirano, ali sigurnost nam je na prvom mjestu", rekla je gradska vijećnica iz Los Angelesa Traci Park.

Broj evakuiranih osoba je u ovom trenutku oko 100.000, što je značajno manje u usporedbi s oko 180.000, koliko ih je bilo prijašnjih dana.

"Mnoga područja još uvijek izgledaju kao da su bombardirana", rekao je šerif okruga Los Angeles Robert Luna, ističući opasnost koju predstavljaju srušeni dalekovodi i plinske cijevi.
