At least six people have died in wildfires raging on the Hawaiian island of Maui, officials said on Thursday.
Other people are still unaccounted for while hospitals on Maui treat burn and smoke inhalation victims. Search and rescue teams are struggling to reach parts of Maui cut off by three out-of-control blazes.
Wildfires whipped up by strong winds from Hurricane Dora have destroyed homes, knocked out 911 and cell services, and forced some residents to flee into the ocean. More than 2,100 people were housed across four emergency shelters on Wednesday evening, state officials said.
