\u201cGround crews (remained) actively engaged throughout the night, utilizing a large amount of water and the LAFD structural firefighting robot,\u201d department officials said. \u201cFirefighter safety remains the top priority, as crews have identified areas of wall instability due to the significant volume of water being applied to the structure.<\/p>\n

\u201cSmoke conditions are expected to continue evolving as weather conditions change and suppression efforts progress. This remains a complex, long-duration incident that will require sustained operations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additional resources were also being put in place at and around the 491,000-square-foot Lineage warehouse at 1400 S. Los Palos St. after Gov. Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass each issued a Declaration of Emergency to support the ongoing firefight, which began Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalifornia is deploying specialized resources, supporting local firefighters and pre-positioning critical supplies to protect communities and accelerate recovery,\u201d Newsom said in issuing the declaration.<\/p>\n
