NoI have never seen, in thirty years of frequenting, such a ghostly Los Angeles.” This is the testimony of one of the Italians who returned today to Fiumicino airport from Los Angeles, whose area is hit by devastating fires. «More than the fire, I saw, from afar, a lot of smoke, these enormous clouds of smoke and I smelled the strong, acrid smell – says a Roman lady – They send alerts every two minutes, telling them not to leave the house and to move away from the area. The airport was fully functional.” Another Italian echoes this in a few excited words: «Dramatic situation. Lots of fires at the same time, lots of smoke. The truth? We had a bit of anxiety.”
From the stories, no one has run any direct risks or experienced situations related to the fires up close, but concern about what is happening has nevertheless emerged. Some show images of the fires on their cell phones, taken from along highways or from hotels. (Telenews service)
