The Consulate General of Bulgaria in Los Angeles has issued recommendations due to two new fires that have broken out in the Los Angeles and Ventura counties in the United States. The Hughes fire has spread over more than 10,000 acres of land, while the Sepulveda fire has covered 45 acres. Evacuation orders have been issued for five areas, roads have been closed, and shelters have been set up.

The Consulate General of Bulgaria in Los Angeles recommends that Bulgarians who are near any of the affected areas stay indoors and avoid opening windows unless absolutely necessary, limit outdoor activities, and refrain from traveling unless necessary. If they need to go outside, they should wear masks. The Consulate General of Bulgaria in Los Angeles also recommends that Bulgarians stay informed about the current situation and strictly follow the instructions of the local authorities.
