Los Angeles has been rocked by a series of destructive fires this January 2025, sparking fresh outrage over what many residents describe as gross mismanagement by local authorities.

In addition to delayed response times and inconsistent communication between emergency units, reports have emerged of severe water shortages hampering firefighting efforts in key areas. Multiple hydrants in neighborhoods such as the eastern hills and coastal districts were found to be dry, leaving crews scrambling to source water from more distant locations and allowing the flames to spread more rapidly than anticipated.

This piece stands as a stark indictment of systemic failure and a memorial to those who suffered as a result of preventable negligence.
