United States President Joe Biden has announced a federal aid of $770 as a one-time payment to California wildfire victims as Los Angeles County battles one of the worst sets of fires in state history.
Biden, whose tenure in the White House is drawing to a close, made the announcement on Monday.
According to official reports, the wildfire, which had claimed 29 lives, is a growing concern among Americans.
However, Biden, in a meeting with stakeholders, vowed to offer a one-time payment of $770 to the victims of the deadly Los Angeles County fires while promising that the government would be covering 100% of the disaster response costs for the next six months.
