Friday, 4:50 p.m. PST Cal Fire reported 31% containment on the 23,713-acre Palisades Fire, meaning firefighters now have control of about one-third of the perimeter of the fire; Cal Fire also reported 65% containment for the Eaton Fire and full containment of the Auto and Hurst fires.

The massive Palisades Fire broke out in Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon, prompting mandatory evacuations affecting tens of thousands of people and highway closures. Later Tuesday, the Eaton Fire broke out in the foothills of Pasadena on the other side of Los Angeles County.

The Eaton Fire was first reported around 6:30 p.m. local time in the Altadena area and quickly spread, with the potential to grow much further.

The city of Pasadena has declared a local public health emergency​ a week after the Eaton Fire caused widespread destruction.

Fires across the Los Angeles area have killed at least 24 people and destroyed more than 12,000 structures, officials said, scorching more than 60 square miles and displacing tens of thousands of people.

A FEMA Disaster Recovery Center for Angelenos impacted by the fires has also been set up at the UCLA Research Park (formerly the Westside Pavilion). The center will serve as FEMA’s central hub for evacuated residents on the Westside, offering aid to those who have lost their homes, businesses or vital records.

Those looking to assist residents affected by the Los Angeles County firestorm have a number of options to donate money, materials or their time.

A charity auction and sweepstakes to benefit to SoCal Fire Fund is full of celebrity meet-and-greets, set visits and other big-ticket items.

Coverage of the firefighters' battle against Eaton and Palisades fires, including stories about the dangerous weather and victim frustration.

"The fire has been mapped at 55.7 acres with 0 percent containment," a Ventura County Fire Department spokesperson said.
