US wildfires leave dozens missing in Oregon, state governor says

Dozens of people are missing in Oregon alone, state Governor Kate Brown has said, as deadly wildfires continue to sweep through US West Coast states. Fires have been raging in California, Oregon and Washington for three weeks. Fanned by winds amid record heat, the blazes have burnt millions of acres, destroyed thousands of homes, and killed at least 25 people. California's Governor Gavin Newsom said the fires show the debate around climate change is "over". "Just come to the state of California. Observe it with your own eyes," he told reporters from a charred mountainside.

  1. Las autoridades locales informaron este sábado de tres nuevos fallecidos por uno de los múltiples grandes incendios que queman en el oeste de EE.UU., lo que eleva el total de muertos por los fuegos desde mediados de agosto a 28, aunque se espera que la cifra crezca ya que sigue habiendo decenas de desaparecidos.

    En una rueda de prensa, el sheriff del condado de Butte, Kory Honea, informó de las nuevas víctimas en el fuego de North Complex, uno de los que más ha avanzado en los últimos días en California y que quema en el Norte del estado.
