Thank you for this coverage. I watch DW regularly to break free of my U.S. view and become informed from yours. Your channel is a very important source I share with friends. In this coverage of the fires I find myself wanting maps overview of the areas, the burned areas and the fire projections. This may be because I am from California and the news outlet do this often. Great job!
God be with you all.
