The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire) thanked on social media the number of partners — locally, federally and internationally — who have helped fight the Los Angeles wildfires in the past week.
“CAL FIRE extends our heartfelt gratitude to the extraordinary departments, states, and countries that have stepped up to support California in this time of need. Whether by land, air, or sea, your dedication and effort have been invaluable,” the state agency wrote Saturday.
Canada and Mexico have both provided aid to California’s firefighting efforts, as well as crews from Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Idaho, Oregon and Washington, according to Cal Fire.
