The wildfires in Los Angeles continued to burn mostly out of control on Thursday, with at least five blazes being fueled by dry conditions and ferocious winds.
At least five people have died as a result of the fires. Over 100,000 people have been forced to evacuate as the Palisades, Eaton and Sunset fires -- among others -- burn tens of thousands of acres in densely populated areas.
Photos of the disaster capture the apocalyptic scale of destruction and heartbreak left in its wake.
