LA Mayor Oversees Homeless Camp Sweep - Los Angeles

City workers dismantle tents and remove personal belongings during a sweep of a large homeless encampment in Los Angeles on July 31, 2025. The operation takes place under increased media scrutiny and in the presence of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who observes the process and speaks briefly with displaced residents and officials. The sweep is part of a broader initiative aimed at clearing public spaces and connecting unhoused individuals with shelter services, though critics argue it disrupts fragile community networks and fails to address root causes. Dozens of people are forced to move, many uncertain about their next steps. The presence of city leadership highlights the growing urgency and political stakes surrounding homelessness in the city.
