Devastating Forest Fires in Los Angeles Leave Many Homeless and Threaten Oscar Awards

los angeles - The ongoing forest fires in Los Angeles have left many people homeless and may cause the cancellation of the prestigious Oscar Awards for the first time in its 96-year history.

The devastating forest fires in Los Angeles have not only left many people homeless but also impacted the Hollywood community. The fires have disrupted the 'award season' calendar of Hollywood, leading to the cancellation or postponement of several ceremonies. The possibility of the cancellation of the 96th Oscars ceremony this year is looming due to the wildfires. Reports in the US media suggest that a secret 'emergency strategy' is being implemented to cancel the March 3 ceremony. Officials state that even if the fires are extinguished in the coming week, the city will still be in great pain, and this situation will last for months.

The death toll in the wildfires that have been raging in Los Angeles for 9 days has risen to 25. While firefighters partially brought the fires in Palisades and Eaton under control over the weekend, the winds began to pick up at the beginning of the week. With fires still ongoing in four areas of the city, a warning of 'violent winds' was issued. So far, 153 square kilometers have burned in the fires in Palisades and Eaton areas. Over 12,000 structures have been destroyed throughout the city. Meteorologists warn that the local weather conditions could lead to fire tornadoes, intensifying the flames and causing them to grow.
