For five consecutive days, wildfires fanned by strong winds have ravaged neighborhoods in Los Angeles, destroying more than 12,300 homes and buildings and leaving at least 11 dead. Fresh evacuations were ordered from Mandeville Canyon to the Interstate 405 freeway on Friday evening because of a flare up of the massive Palisades Fire.

The damage from wildfires ravaging the Los Angeles area is horrific however it’s tallied. Neighborhoods have been erased, landmarks destroyed and lives lost.

Images capture widespread destruction caused by the wind-driven blazes, which have scorched more than 30,000 acres and reduced entire neighborhoods to ash.
