USA : California is currently battling the biggest fire of the year. Thousands of firefighters are trying to extinguish the rapidly growing forest fire in Northern California. The California Park fire has devastated more than 350,000 acres (141,640 acres) and more than 90 miles of land to the north, according to the California Department of Fire and Protection.
Colder temperatures and more humid air are expected in the area, potentially helping efforts to slow its spread. By Saturday evening, 10 percent of the land was contained. The fire has destroyed 134 structures, officials said. US President Joe Biden has also been briefed on the fire. He has directed his team to make every possible effort to support the US.
