Elon Musk said on Thursday that his company SpaceX will provide free Starlink terminals to affected areas in Los Angeles in the morning.

More than 100,000 people were ordered to evacuate as dry, hurricane-force winds hindered firefighting operations and spread the fires, which have burned parched terrain almost unimpeded since they began on Tuesday.
