Good morning, just in case, I remind you that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are regular working days. In the meantime, here's some fresh news from overseas.
The year has just begun, and American A-list celebrities and their insurance agents are already calculating multi-billion dollar damages.
Jennifer Aniston, Bradley Cooper, Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon, Adam Sandler and other show business stars live in the Pacific Palisades area. Accordingly, the houses there are not from the business segment.
A few hours ago, due to strong winds, the flames quickly spread across the area. The fire engulfed not only residential buildings, but also infrastructure facilities.
Authorities declared a state of emergency and mandatory evacuation of 75 thousand people. At the moment, more than 27,000 people have already been evacuated, there are no reports of casualties yet.
Local film studios are already canceling premieres due to the emergency.
Actor James Woods even posted footage (video 2) from his home, where the fire got extremely close to his property: "Just letting you know that we were able to successfully evacuate. I don't know at this point if our house is still standing, but unfortunately the house on our little street is not."
