Warnings over Maui fires came late, evacuees say – BBC News


As the scale of the fire’s destruction in Maui becomes clear, questions are mounting over whether officials warned residents fast enough.

Local evacuations first took place on Tuesday, followed by an announcement that the flames were "100% contained".

By the following day, however, fast-moving flames had engulfed Maui’s Lahaina town.

About 80% of the town has been destroyed, according to officials.
