Town of Lytton, BC engulfed in wildfires, 1 year after being burned to the ground

Share! :D

Just over a year ago, most of the town of Lytton in British Columbia's Fraser Canyon was engulfed in flames from a fast-moving wildfire.

Now the area's remaining residents are again being evacuated as another wildfire threatens the remaining homes, including those on a First Nations reserve.

The fire continues to rage, four times larger than it was in the previous 24 hours. Further west, people have already lost their homes.

Lytton First Nation has issued an evacuation order, saying that the number of structures lost to the fire has jumped to the double-digits. Kamil Karamali reports.
