00:00Twenty-five people were killed in a wildfire in Los Angeles, California, in the middle of the pandemic.
00:09The nation's god was pleased with the lives of the victims.
00:19Please, God, save us. Save our house. Please.
00:23This man was just praying while a wildfire was approaching their house in Atavina, California, on January 7.
00:30The sky was gray, and it was hard to breathe because of the thick smoke.
00:34They were desperate to escape, but before leaving the house, they sprayed their roof with water.
00:39Let's go. Let's go. We're going.
00:41The residents of the house were saved, and according to the video that was uploaded, they learned that their house was also saved.
00:48He was very grateful to the firefighters and other responders.
00:52More than 8,000 firefighters from seven US states and two more countries were helping to put out the wildfires that broke out since January 7.
01:02Among the most visible wildfires were the Palisades and Eton Fire, which hit 153 square kilometers of land, which is equivalent to 89 percent of Quezon City.
01:14Twenty-five people were injured.
01:16Authorities and sniffer dogs were following the places where the wildfires hit to find out if anyone was trapped and killed.
01:24At the famous beachfront of the coastal city of Malibu, the destruction of the house and other establishments was seen.
01:32Some communities that were not yet affected by the wildfire turned pink because the fire retardant was poured to slow down the spread of fire.
01:41In the midst of the wildfire, the people of Bayanihan, including some members of the Filipino community, like Madeline Arenas,
01:50helped in the evacuation center on the first day of the fire.
01:54Social media is a big thing to circulate food and equipment for the injured.
02:00Currently, they are looking for a cheap cell and apartment to help the victims.
02:05They don't have toothbrushes or anything.
02:08We are also helping them to give Filipino hot meals.
02:12They said we need rice.
02:15Every day, there are Filipinos who give hot meals.
02:21Primo Guerrero was almost burned by the wildfire, but when he was sure that his house would not be affected by the fire, he immediately helped.
02:29Moses Ase was assigned by his company to deliver supplies to the evacuation center.
02:34As Filipinos, it's instilled to us to always help each other.
02:39It's in our blood, Filipino blood.
02:40To help during calamities, it's like a natural thing or probably a nurtured thing.
02:48Two churches led by Filipino priests opened for evacuees.
