Hundreds of Texas firefighters and support personnel are being deployed to help fight the deadly wildfires currently devastating California, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said Sunday.<\/b>
\nAbbott announced that 200 firefighters with 55 fire engines from local departments across Texas, as well as teams from the Texas Forest Service at Texas A&M, will be deployed starting Monday morning.
Abbott said it was imperative that Texans help other firefighters combat the wildfires in California.
\u201cWhen disaster strikes, it is imperative that the call for help is answered, and that is exactly what these men and women serving in fire departments across Texas are doing,\u201d Abbott said. \u201cAs California continues to fight these fires, Texas will be sending its bravest firefighters to aid in their efforts. Our prayers go out to all who have been impacted by these devastating wildfires, and the state of Texas will continue to offer any resources to aid in the recovery process.\u201d
