American Red Cross Responds to Spokane Wildfires, Urges Caution as Some Areas Reopen
The American Red Cross is actively involved in providing aid to those affected by the wildfires in Spokane, Washington. As firefighters gain control over the fires, some neighborhoods are reopening, but evacuation orders remain in place for other areas. The Red Cross is urging residents to stay out of restricted areas until it is deemed safe to return. They are providing shelter, meals, health support, and distributing relief items. In areas where evacuation orders have been lifted, wildfire kits are being distributed. The Red Cross is also responding to other fires across the West, including in Oregon and California, where they have opened shelters and are prepared to expand their response if necessary.
