(ANSA) – ROME, JAN 9 – Italians arriving back in Rome from Los Angeles Thursday said they had left a “ghostly city” after wildfires devastated the Californian metropolis and killed five people.
“I have never seen, in thirty years of frequenting (the city), such a ghostly Los Angeles”, said one of the Italians at Fiumicino airport.
The Italian eye witnesses said none of them had run direct risks or experienced situations related to the fires up close, but they voiced deep concern for what is happening and said they had been glad to return to Italy as soon as possible.
Some people showed images of the fires, on their cell phones, taken from along the highways or from hotels. (ANSA).
