California firefighters are racing to prevent a hazardous chemical tank from exploding at an aerospace manufacturing facility in Orange County, just a few kilometers away from Disneyland. The city has asked around 40,000 residents to evacuate. Authorities say the situation remains critical, with crews working around the clock to cool the overheated tank and avoid what officials warn could become both a public safety and environmental disaster.
