many troops mckinnon. welcome. tens of thousands of people in los angeles have been order to leave that homes as well. fires spread rapidly in the cities hillsides. a 3rd file has broken out in the northern hills of the city. the flames have been found by dangerous to be false twins from a storm that hits southern california on tuesday via has consumed more than 5 square kilometers in the pacific palisades area in western l. a. and it is spreading westwards. firefights is all struggling to keep the places from spreading no source. he said many buildings have already been destroyed. it is a race against time to bring residents of an elderly cousin to safety. in the middle of the night,

a wild fires broke out here and out to dana in the foothills, northeast of los angeles. on tuesday evening. they are now tearing through the neighborhood the brush spies that started hours earlier in the coastal pacific palisades. still out of control, the affluent area is home to many los angeles does, including the coach of the basketball team, the la, cuz j reddick, the just want to acknowledge and send thoughts and prayers to everyone in the palisades right now. it's where i live. my family and my wife's family, my wife's twin sister evacuated. i know that a lot of people are um, freaking out right now, including my family and from the sound of things with the winds coming tonight. i know a lot of people are scared when the fire started,

some residents did their best to try to keep it today. tens of thousands let their homes causing traffic jams on the narrow roads. many escapes justin time. i've never seen the fires with this close to the car as people left a car. some policies drive burning up the hillside, palm trees, everything's going and the wind and the firemen are great, but property damage is property, damage losing lives, dogs, animals, horses, a lot of horses in the neighborhood. so. yeah, so that's, that's really the blazes raged across thousands of acres in the mass of olives of g t firefighters to being called in to help set colleagues on the ground too. and now facing a baffle on several fronts. jason, come to go near as

a journalist, anela, and with 5 fights, was the now baffling 3 huge places. i asked him to update us on the current situation. the that's right, and in total, we've only burned officially about $5000.00 acres. but if you look at it from some of the pictures online and then social media, people who are filming from their balcony from miles away. obviously the official numbers of that acreage and the charge land in southern california is going to be in probably the 10s of thousands once the sun does come up here, the firefight is dire. the winds are gusting up to about a 100 miles an hour in some spots. and that's causing the embers from mainly the palm trees. uh to float several miles down the road or across town. and that starting another spot fire and then that starts another fire,

then that starts another fire. so the firefighters are spread very, very then right now. and all they're trying to do is just try to stay ahead of it. but there really is no way and with the winds gusting up to a 100 miles now there's no way they can fight that. people are trying to get to safety as soon as they can. and the roads are very, very narrow and very small in that part of southern california. so that's causing traffic jams. and that's causing a lot of panic for people trying to get to say, right, i mean, tens of thousands of people now under evacuation or does this that any health available for them? um, i mean how, how easy is it to escape from this situation? causing that great. yesterday we saw people uh, digging their cars and running down the street, holding suitcases full of their belongings because that's the only thing that they could do. firefighters have made it their job to make sure that they're telling

people 8. when we tell you to go, it is time to go, this is not a drill. this is a very serious situation. and there's a valuation centers that are being opened. and the problem is, is that the fire is moving so fast and its solar radek that a fire in one area or down one road and the wind shifts. it moves so fast that they don't want to get people trapped in in that area. we are hearing reports and people getting hurt, trying to evacuate, and some people remaining in their homes and the fire creeping in on them. we have heard that we believe that some people may have sustained some broken bones on trying to get out and, and evacuating me. and we're not exactly sure the details of that situation. but it, it, it's not, it's not fantastic here in southern california right now. these are very affluent areas, multi $1000000.00 homes being burned to the ground. right?

i mean, just put into perspective the severity of these fires for us with seeing the pictures . what does this feel like if you're in this situation? well, i live about 20 miles south of the biggest fire the palisades and you can taste it . i am inside and an air condition building and you can still taste and you get that little smoke taste in the back your throat. obviously you can hear it in my voice, but everybody's walking around very congested. so air quality is what is being affected for the, the masses in southern california. but walking around and see the landscape totally engulfed in flames is a scary feeling just in general, especially when you live here in southern california. we are the land of sun and sunny beaches. and it's not that way. right now the entire, you know,

south bay was covered in smoke yesterday, and it's probably going to be that way for the next couple of days due to this wind storm that we're currently up to unless jason come padaya in la. jason, thank you so much for your time. we really appreciate it and to stay safe. a us here in germany political policies and launching the campaigns for the general election that's due on february. the 23rd is not vote was cold. also the collapse of the governing coalition. lead always mounts the conservative cd. you policy come to that is attending amazing of his policies. bavarian system policy, the c s you know he is to to be the next trunk fly. because the cd you see a, c, c, a few looks set to win. the largest chat boats mounts outlined his leadership plans including fixing what he said is the critical stage of the gentleman economy and the need for the tax for ton for phones. he says your needs to be prepared for the quotes. disruptive politics of us president elect,

donald trump. we can get more now from dw as chief political edison. me to let us know who is at the conservative conference menu in the town of z on wet and that's is just addressed the media and mikayla. you heard mats speak, tell us more about what he had to say. absolutely, i mean one, look at the polls, his cd, you sees you around 30 percent, the strongest policy he is according to the polls and most likely mine to become the next time slot. and that's why we immediately put those questions about the disruption that donald trump is already announcing to him. and he basically onset on the very issue of regulation of when it comes to social media here. of course, the loan mosque seen as interfering a recommending for germans to vote for the far right alternative for germany policies. we saw facebook,

and now it's all meant to announce that then no longer will be fact checking, wanting less regulations. that is something i expect it to be a demand on the table from the top to administration. and here we have some pretty those math. so off of questions on what he tends to do doesn't stick buying european regulation that yes, woods that the regulations should remain in place at the same time. it should not interfere with press freedom and listening closely to that it already becomes the brother pound what the future friction points could become that because press freedom is what is seen as the regulation on the other side of the atlantic. so that will be a very interesting one. so the indeed to come into office after this february 20 such elections and the is almost traditional tension between and within this conservative comp of the cd was c issue. there was also a bit of question mark whether both stand side by side when it comes to the question of providing ukraine with a tower system. here we learn again,

that's an foolish mass. would you become toss? it would be in the save of delivering that, but only is if it is a joint decision with allies. and we learned from the variances, the policy which has been more skeptical that it sees this as definitely for coal to be made by a few to tonsils. you can tell already both feel pretty certain that that's going to go that way. mm hm. the tourist system, of course, is the, the missiles list that you train once from germany, just to clarify that, can i ask you a shout? you know what strategies mounts is using to try to set himself apart from the current drum jones so that what efforts as well he has in a way, um, an easy issue to go on, which is the economy that's also his personal friend strength and used to work for a black roku shoots investment company here in europe as that is what he would like to focus on at the same time. uh, he stresses that migration cannot stay the same. you said that has to be

a complete policy turnaround on the economy. on migration, but also when it comes to how many is representative broad, we're still flooding what exactly that means you will hold, hold of may just be till not later in the month. but we do know that his focus is clearly on europe taking a leading role in germany at this thing. more need to sit in that again, something that's he would need to define on the economy. he is all about essentially cutting down on funding that is going into making the economy green a. and he sees almost as, as the other end of the spectrum. investing in dynamism into the german economy, which currently is rudy in las vegas when it comes to european colonies in growth. in fact, it's heading further into recessive shayla. thank you so much. bring us up to date that c w as chief political editor. let me tell you, let us know. all right, let's take
