Mexico sent a team of firefighters to California on Saturday to help teams battling the wildfires that have devastated parts of Los Angeles. "We are supporting not just because Mexico has always been generous, but also because there are so many Mexicans in these burn sites," said Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. In Los Angeles County, about half the population is Hispanic, many of Mexican descent. The World's Tibisay Zea reports on efforts by this community to help support victims.
