Drone captures devastating aftermath of Spokane wildfires

Severe wildfires in Spokane, Washington and surrounding areas burned 10,000 acres and destroyed more than 900 homes. Over 64,000 residents were evacuated as strong winds rapidly spread the flames.

The fires became the highest firefighting priority in the US amid widespread drought and ongoing wildfires across the Pacific Northwest in early August. No serious injuries or deaths were reported in Spokane.
