The destructive Palisades Fire reached Mandeville Canyon — a densely populated area north of Santa Monica, California — on Saturday.
At least one home in Mandeville Canyon was engulfed in flames Saturday morning as firefighters made multiple water drops from aircraft to prevent the fire from spreading through the neighborhood, ABC 7 reported. The Palisades Fire, which has already burned through over 22,000 acres and resulted in at least two deaths, dramatically shifted overnight Friday and is now threatening the Brentwood area and the western San Fernando Valley.

Fox News reporter Matt Finn shared a video of the fire moving toward the Mandeville Canyon as giant flames were visible above a canyon ridge.
“More devastating news. We are in densely populated Mandeville Canyon above Brentwood and homes are on fire. Fire slowly making its way down the canyon. This exposes entire regions of west LA to spread of fire,” Finn wrote on X.

Evacuation orders are in place for a massive area, stretching from “the Pacific Ocean to the west, the 405 Freeway to the east, San Vicente Boulevard to the south and the Encino Reservoir to the north,” according to ABC 7. The latest update from Cal Fire reports that the Palisades Fire is 11% contained. Dozens of residents attempted to return to their homes in Mandeville Canyon early Saturday morning, but authorities prevented them from doing so, The New York Times reported.
Earlier this week, Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley said the Palisades Fire “is one of the most destructive natural disasters in the history of Los Angeles.” The fire started on Tuesday and, stoked by Santa Ana winds, quickly spread through Pacific Palisades and Malibu, destroying hundreds of homes and businesses.
“The clouds just cleared, and I can tell you it’s the most devastating event that I’ve seen. I’ve seen the earthquakes, all the fires here for the last 30 or 40 years, and we’ve never seen anything like this,” an ABC 7 reporter said on Thursday.
“As you can see, row after row after row, every single home burned right down to the foundation,” the reported added.
