Recovery crews continue to comb through the charred ruins and hundreds of people remain unaccounted for. There is growing anger on maui over both the lack of warning about the wildfires the worst to hit a state in america in over a century and the response by officials to the thousands left without homes and in some cases adequate food and water as sophie long reports from the island. This is what remains of lahaina. Cars abandoned as people ran and jumped into the sea to escape the flames. Homes and businesses reduced to charred remains. President biden promised immediate help and said every available asset should be used to provide it, but, days later, people here say its not yet reaching those most in need and people like felicia are desperately trying to get supplies into lahaina themselves. Im frustrated. People are. Were all together. Were one family, we need to take care of each other. No one� s feeding everyone. Theyre traumatised. Theyre upset. No one� s giving hugs. They need mental help. What do you need from me . To hear people in the same pads since the fire on thursday. Kids in the same diapers since thursday. People without food. They havent drank since before the fire. What are we doing . Hundreds of thousands flock to mauis stunning coastline every year and thousands ofjobs here are dependent on tourism, but the jarring contrast between those holidaying and those hurting is difficult to bear with so many still unaccounted for. The same waters that our people just died in three days ago are the same waters the very next day these visitors, tourists were swimming in and that says a lot about where their heart and mind is through all of this and where our heart and mind is through all of this, as well. You dont see our people swimming, snorkelling, surfing. Nobody is having fun in tragedy and continuing their lives like nothing has happened. There is two hawaiis right now. There is the hawaii were living in and the hawaii theyre living in, theyre visiting in. As search and recovery teams continue their difficult task of sifting through the remains, people queue for hours to get back to what were their homes. Confusion is leading to frustration. At 8. 30am, we went there. They said, go to The Other Side. So we went to The Other Side and same thing. Theres, like, a line and its not even moving so we came back here. So we got here at 9. 30 and its 12. 30 right now. Theyre not telling us what to do. The cops arejust going back and forth. But the authorities are asking for patience. We know weve got to go quick, but weve got to do it right, so when we pick up the remains and they fall apart. So when you have 200 people running through the scene yesterday, and some of you, thats what youre stepping on. I dont know how much more you want me to describe it. Thats what youre stepping on. Give us a little bit of time to contain that, please. People already know this is the deadliest disaster in hawaiis history and the death toll is still climbing. The bbc caught up with the governor of hawaii, josh green, and asked him about the lack of warning to residents of lahaina about the approaching wildfires and what went wrong i think really what it was was an incredibly overwhelming circumstance, which was a hurricane and Hurricane Force winds simultaneously with fire. And weve not experienced anything like that in the region in a town before. There was a lot of response going on amongst the firefighters all across the island. I think that was the greatest confounding issue. But my team is doing a thorough review. Weve begun it with our attorney general, and thats the important piece for us now. Of course, most of our efforts are going to be on recovery, finding a way to reunite families with either those that theyve lost so that they have closure or getting them housing and survival. These processes normally come much after an incident like this, but were doing it in parallel because we want to be safer and learn right now. While the authorities continue the difficult work of searching for and identifying the dead after the devastating fire in the town of lahaina, some residents are taking Relief Efforts into their own hands. John sudworth went out with one group of volunteers taking Relief Supplies by boat. We are on board the ocean spirit, a boat owned by the pacific whale foundation, a Marine Conservation charity. But today staff and volunteers on board are on a different mission. If you look down here, these are full fuel cans. A lot of people inside the Disaster Zone depend on generators for cooking. This, of course, is a vital lifeline. Over here, Something Else badly needed. Fresh drinking water. We can quite clearly see the town of lahaina now and what you can make out is the blackened landscape above the town where the grass was burning. And what happened with the hurricane blowing way off to the south, the pressure brought the wind over the top of the island, picking up speed on the way down the mountainside and picking up sparks from the fire and bringing them directly into the town. They didnt stand a chance. As well as the devastated town of lahaina, which is a short distance that way, there are communities like this one. They were not directly affected by the wildfire but have nonetheless been cut off without road access, power and communication for days. So this is vital aid and all of it delivered by volunteer effort. Theres growing pressure on the uk government to do more to tackle people smugglers operating small boats crossing the channel after six people drowned in a vessel off the coast of france. The Opposition Labour Party says people smugglers are � running rings around Government Efforts to tackle the problem. More than 500 people crossed in boats on saturday. Uk ministers have pushed through parliament tougher laws, which make it illegal for people to claim asylum in the uk, if theyve arrived on small boats. Simonjones has the latest. Despite yesterdays deaths in the channel the crossings have continued. 500 more people were brought to shore on saturday after being picked up in flimsy boats. In dover, thoughts remain with the six men who did not make it. Unfortunately, this is going to happen sometime and we will have another one before long. All the time people are trying to cross the channel in these boats which are not designed for the purpose, then, unfortunately, things will go wrong. After the initial shock about the latest loss of life at sea, focus is inevitably turned to what can be done to prevent more tragedies. The government has made stopping the boats one of its top priorities, but so far, that has not stopped the desire of many to get to the uk. Labour describes the governments approach as shambolic. It wants a new focus on tackling the criminal gangs bringing so many people across the channel. It accuses ministers of allowing the Asylum Backlog to get out of control. The total failure to do the basics, process cases, get decisions made as quickly as possible. And then you can take action if people dont have a right to be in this country. And for those who do, you can make sure that they are allowed to get on and live the rest of their lives happily. But also action on these criminal gangs. The government insist that increased patrols on beaches in france and a return deal with albania, are delivering results. There are record numbers of people arriving in europe at the moment, but the actual numbers of people arriving from france into the uk has gone down. There is a lot of work that has been undertaken to achieve that. We are working very closely with the french government to stop boats being launched. Obviously we havent stopped them all, it will continue to be a problem but we have stopped a lot. The french minister responsible for safety at sea came to calais to thank those involved in the rescue operation, said british and french lifeboats working together prevented more deaths. This terrible event shows that thanks to cooperation between france and britain, we have managed to save lives, that is what we have to focus on. The wind has been too strong for crossings today, but as soon the weather improves, more will make the journey. A memorial on the seafront remembers those who have died seeking sanctuary in the uk. Six more men will be added to that list. Lets get some of the days other news now. China says it will respond forcefully to a visit to new york by taiwans vice president. This was william lai in new york on a brief stop over en route to paraguay, one of the few countries that maintains diplomatic relations with taiwan.

The vote is mandatory and will give an indication of who may win the election in october. Inflation in argentina is running at over 100 . To ukraine now and the government has claimed partial success in its Counter Offensive in the zaporijia region. The ukrainian General Staff says that its forces have gained ground around the village of robotyne and have successfully repelled russian counter attacks elsewhere along the front line. It is now over two months since ukraine started its Counter Offensive. In that time, they have retaken several villages and advanced several kilometres but have yet to achieve a significant breakthrough. Britains Defence Ministry says theres a realistic possibility that russia no longer funds the activities of the Mercenary Group, wagner. These are wagner fighters Training Soldiers in belarus. In its daily bulletin, the british Defence Ministry says the wagner group is likely moving towards a downsizing and reconfiguration process. It adds that the russian state has acted against some other Business Interests of wagner owner Yevgeny Prigozhin after he led a failed mutiny against the Russian Military leaders in june. It says if the russian state is no longer paying the Mercenary Group the second most plausible source of funding is belarusian authorities.

We have the football on the way. The days football on the way, and we start with harry kane, whos facing the media formally for the first time as a Bayern Munich player. In a Press Conference in the last hour he said it was always a tough decision to leave tottenham after 19 years but wanted to reach new levels as a professional and wasnt fazed by missing out on breaking on the all Time Premier League goalscoring record for now. I am a professional and i have always pushed myself to my limits and i felt like the time was right, i needed to be playing at the highest level, champions league, playing. Trying to win titles every year. When i thought about it and obviously they got in touch, it was a decision i wanted to make. Of course people will talk about a record, but ive got plenty of football left in my career. For now, im going to concentrate on trying to achieve things here, pushing myself, pushing the team and trying to reach new levels with this club. And that is where my focus is right now. So no harry kane for spurs. It is currently goalless in their game. James madison is wearing the number ten shirt. Chelsea take on liverpool a bit later on. The blues ended up in 12th place with no european football but have a new manager. The reds finished fifth. Weve got very good Football Teams, two very talented Football Teams will face each other. A lot of good things. You can see that its a very talented team. That is what we have to prepare for. Its the first home game after a long break and after a disappointing season. 0ur players want to show up. Definitely knew manager, and they will show up. We have to be ready. Roberto mancini has resigned as head coach of the Italian National team.
