Large wildfires on Malibu Beach in LA...forced evacuation of 2,000 residents

A large forest fire broke out on Malibu Beach, a tourist attraction in Los Angeles, the United States, and residents were ordered to evacuate.

California's fire authorities say the wildfire, which started on Malibu Beach on the night of the 9th local time, has spread to 9 square kilometers, twice the size of Yeouido, and that the fire has yet to be contained, so the extinguishing rate is 0%.

Wildfires threaten more than 8,000 structures, including luxury mansions on Malibu's beaches, of which 2,000 households have been ordered to evacuate.

In addition, 6,000 residents in potentially dangerous areas were warned to be prepared to evacuate immediately.

In addition to housing, the fire spread to the vicinity of the campus of Pepperdine University, a private university on Malibu's beach, and videos taken by students spread on social media.

A dormitory assistant at Pepperdine University said the wildfire cut power and flames were burning in the distance, knocking on each of the dorm's visits to evacuate students.
