At least 24 people have been killed and more than 10,000 properties destroyed in the Los Angeles wildfires.

In this episode of The Briefing Bension Siebert speaks to Craig Lapsley, Victoria’s former Fire Services Commissioner, to break down what he's observed and what we can learn from LA’s deadly fires.
