and an agonizing wait for news of their loved ones. and a new twist in the hunter biden program. u.s. attorney general announcing its special counsel to investigate president biden's son. history taking shape at the woman's world cup stage, now set for a first time winner, after japan was knocked out in the quarterfinals. live, from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom >> we begin in hawaii, and would've another evacuation on maui. the police department just posted that there is a fire in west maui, and residents in the area are currently being evacuated. that comes as a white's attorney general says she will lead a comprehensive review of the decisions officials made, as deadly wildfires broke out earlier on maui. more criticism is now growing over how authorities handled things in the early stages. as flames quickly spread and destroyed the iconic area. hawaii emergency management says maui's warning sirens were not turned on after the fires broke out. but many people were unaware of just how bad things got until it was too late to leave. and critics say that may have cost many lives. the state's governor talked earlier about why the notification was not given. >> what we understand is that when those fires reignited in late afternoon or early evening they were focusing on fires elsewhere on the island, and the telecommunications were destroyed very rapidly. communication was cut off by the destruction of, essentially 1000 degree heat that was coming down the mountain. that is not, again, to make an excuse for anyone. and we will check and be very safe and sure that we did what we could. >> while the lahaina fire is now 85% contained, but at least 67 people are confirmed dead. officials predict that number will rise, as crews are finally able to sift through the wreckage of hundreds of homes incinerated by the flames. for a short time on friday, many residents of lahaina were given the opportunity to return to their community to check on their homes, and salvage any possessions they could find. but the opening was short- lived. authorities soon closed it again. we got a look at the devastation wrought by the fires and it is heartbreaking to see. >> the trees that you guys see behind you right here, this one from the tornado that came through. we have never even seen a tornado in hawaii. in a place so familiar, with weather extremes-- >> it is crazy. >> maui locals have never seen anything like the firestorm that obliterated lahaina. >> you can see a little smolder of smoke. like oh, the house survived, but now there is a little brush fire. >> we are just pulling into lahaina now, first clips this town after hearing stories. it is worse than you can imagine. it is a world war two set. a scorched devastation. >> what was once the capitol of the kingdom of hawaii. one of the most well-preserved towns in the nation, is ash, including bill weiland's famous art gallery. he said he escaped the flames on his harley-davidson, riding around evacuees, trapped between fire and ocean. >> everyone else jumping in the water, flames were shooting over the top, i didn't even want to look behind me. >> there's no one to go. >> all of those cars waiting to move in front of him, no one was moving anyway. you were dead in the water. a lot of them didn't make it from what i heard. >> i'm sure if the winds were 80 miles an hour. >> there was diesel fuel floating in the water as well in the coast guard couldn't coming too far, because of the reefs, and a lot of people can't swim that far a couple of people died of smoke inhalation as well. i know of a lady who stood in the water for 8 hours. >> this is the historic banyan tree, 150-year-old majestic tree at the center of lahaina town. it looks like it may have survived. you need water desperately to survive right now, but for the locals who were coming down, this is such a sign of hope that maybe their iconic tree would have lived when so much all was gone here. but they history can never be replaced. right now with this is the first hotel in hawaii, the pioneer hotel, pioneer theater. it is completely gone. right over he was the library. it is just now a stone shell. scorched locks. around front street there, fleetwood's, the band fleetwood mac, his place, it is got it out with flames. it is just unrecognizable. one of the most charming, beloved port cities in the world is just scorched, like a bomb went off. >> reporter: former, eddie garcia, lost a small fortune in property. but now he is bracing for much bigger losses. >> when i was down there earlier , there were uncles and people that i know on the street, people that i know that were trying to get to the street. they say hundreds of people jumped in the water. >> he personally lost crops? >> i lost nothing, compared to what people lost. i lost farm stuff, and food and whatever. tiny little things, compared to what people lost. people lost their family, their houses. everything we've seen, landmarks, everything we've seen for years, history, it is all gone. >> alice lee is the chair of maui's counsel. and she joins us live, from maui. well,, thank you for joining us at this very difficult time. we understand that hawaii morning emergency management agency has said on friday that maui's warning sirens were not activated. has it been determined? what was behind that? was that a system failure? a human error? >> i think that is still being investigated. but i do want to point out one thing. most of us were aware that we were about to be hit by a very severe storm. for days we were forewarned that hurricane dora was going to pass the islands to the south. packing winds up to 80 miles an hour. so, even myself and my family we sort of battened down the hatches, knowing that we needed to prepare for this severe weather. so, i think, people need to understand that we all were advised about this oncoming storm, and when it hit, it was well beyond anybody's expectations. we lost power, we lost the use of our cell phones , not in central maui, but in west maui. people lost the use of water, we lost internet. communications became extremely difficult. people need to take all of those facts into consideration, that we could not have anticipated dealing with all of these adversarial challenges, and today, i flew over lahaina. i was in a helicopter, with our fire chief, brad ventura, and the site is unbearable. barely bearable. it is heartbreaking to see the desolation. and one of the things that stuck in my mind was passing over some of the leveled homes, and yet people were parked near their homes, just crying, because in disbelief that this could happen , so swiftly, and so completely, so, this is the sad part that we all have to deal with, and now it is our turn, the county counsel, and the administration , to do something about it. you mentioned-- someone mentioned that the death toll has risen, it is probably going to go up a little higher, because what has happened, the rescuers have, at this point in time, covered the streets and the yards of these hundreds of homes that were burned down. tomorrow, they will enter the homes. they had to make sure, before entering the homes, they had to make sure that the gas lines, and electrical lines, and the houses ready to collapse, would not impede searching within the houses. so, tomorrow might be even more difficult day. >> yes. very difficult days and months ahead for your community. criticism is growing, in terms of the handling of this, in the early stages. how do you respond, for instance, to the records, showing that hawaii, underestimated the increasing deadly threat, posed by a wildfire, exacerbated by hurricane force winds, like the lahaina blaze. >> again, it was hard to predict that the hurricane winds would turn upward, toward our islands, instead of the expected path below the islands. so, that was something that nobody knew was going to happen. although, we need to keep in mind that this is hurricane season for hawaii. so, that is one area that we have to look more closely at, and see if there is anything that we can do, to provide more -- provide more-- whether it is alerts, or sirens, or other ways of advising our people ahead of time. but the fires were wild. the fires were relentless, and once they started, you should have seen the site that we looked at today in the helicopter. overlooking the entire lahaina. it is just flat to the ground. and for that to happen so quickly, it is hard to imagine fire traveling that fast, but it had to have. it was terrible, and just a horrific experience. >> terrible, and breathtaking in its devastation and speed. alice lee, we thank you for talking with us, and appreciate you taking up the time to speak with us, and share what you have seen at this very, very difficult moment. >> thank you for having me. and we are going to turn our attention now to the federal judge, presiding over the election subversion case against donald trump. he put trump and his legal team on notice on friday, warning them to be extra careful. what they say publicly about the case, or risk the trial date moved up. she said, the more a party makes inflammatory statements about this case, which could taint the jury pool, or intimidate potential witnesses, the greater the urgency. it will be that we proceed to trial quickly, to ensure a jury pool from which we can select an impartial jury. while the judge granted the special counsel's request for a protective order on the most sensitive evidence, effectively barring trump and his team from sharing those details in public. the judge also told trump's lawyers that she didn't see any evidence the case was politically motivated. wild republican? have long to meant that hunter biden be investigated by a special counsel, but now that it has happened, there are complaints it is too little too late. president biden's son has faced an on-again off-again plea deal on back taxes and a gun charge. but that deal has fallen apart. which means he will most likely have head to trial. david weiss, the trump appointed prosecutor who has been handling the case, was elevated to special counsel on friday, to prepare for their trial. cnn's paula reid has more now, and why this decision was made at this time. >> well, according to the justice department, tuesday, u.s. attorney, david weiss, asked the justice department to change his designation to special counsel, for the purposes of the hunter biden investigation. now, weiss is a trump appointed u.s. attorney, and has been investigating right in for 5 years, but the justice department has not put forth any official explanation for why he suddenly wanted to changes status and become a full-blown special counsel. but there are some clues in the court documents, and court filings, because on friday, court filings reveal that the plea agreement that had been reached between the u.s. attorney in hunter biden, has fallen apart. it has reached an impasse, after a judge expressed some concerns and had some questions about this plea deal according to court filings it appears that tax charges and one charge related to gun violence could go to trial. once you are special counsel, not only can you bring a case in any jurisdiction, you also have to file a full report, detailing your findings. the justice department emphasizes that that will help with the transparency around this investigation, but it is not clear that republicans on the hill are going to see it that way, because they wanted weiss to come and talk to them, testify, answer questions, and it is unclear how becoming a special counsel could impact the willingness to testify before them. we know the previous special counsel's like robert mueller and john durum have testified, but only after their investigations that they submitted their reports. now, sources tell cnn that what the white house was not notified before the special counsel, or the special lawyers. a deadly russian strike was caught on video in ukraine. a russian missile strike on a children's daycare, but the young ones were saved by a stroke of sheer luck. here's how tommy lost 30 lbs on noom weight. i'm tom. noom helped him us psychology to lose weight. the mindful aspect made me feel more conscious about what i was eating and why i was eating it. it's actually working. lose weight and make it last with noom weight.

mr. volodymyr zelenskyy says they use their jobs to commit serious crimes. >> some took cash, some took crypto currency, that's the only difference. the cynicism is the same everywhere. and richmond, illegal authorization of illegally obtained funds, illegal benefit, illegal transportation of people's transportation across the border. this system should be run by people who know exactly what war is, and why cynicism and bribery in times of war consist of treason. >> president volodymyr zelenskyy says military recruitment from now on will be managed by soldiers, who can be trusted, including those who suffered serious injuries in battle. meanwhile, the city of sup for asia is really once more from a hotel, once served as a children's day camp. two missiles struck on thursday and as nick pate and walsh reports, one of the strikes was caught. >> reporter: the first strike brought horror. this man, with his family, in a zaporizhzhia park . terror, then another. some spotted it first. as though the hotel they targeted were a kid's camp and adjust an hour earlier, needed to be hit twice. imagine how the children in the hotel pool felt, dozens of guest injured, one dead, who did not walk away. this is what it looked before the two missiles hit, the playground. a russian than declared all of these hotels in the city to be targeted, full of ukraine soldiers. in the hours after, sirens sounded and kyiv, as ukraine only managed to take down one of four hypersonic missiles. another official saying another target was an f-16 training facility in the west. these nightly strikes, russia's response to the pressure on the southern front. where, friday, importantly small gains were claimed. president, volodymyr zelenskyy, has urged patients to study a slow-moving ship, firing the heads of regional military recruitment, after a series of corruption scandals, replacing them with wounded veterans. >> warriors who left their lost their health, limbs, but retain their dignity can be trusted for the system. >> reporter: cnn, ukraine. >> reporters have staged a large protest against the block, a day after it activated a standby force for military intervention. on friday, thousands of people condemned the block, as they demonstrated in the capitol. many voice to their support for the leaders of the coup. others rallied behind russia, which has warned against military intervention, but has backed the group's mediation efforts. meanwhile, the african union says it strongly supports the decision they have adopted on major. it also urged the coup leaders to be ousted from detention. the human rights chief says he is concerned about the treatment of mohammed, warning that he could be facing inhuman and degrading conditions. in ecuador, the shocking assassination of the president has been. the slain politician's casket has been taken to an exhibition hall, so that some people could come and pay their final respects. afterward he was buried in a ceremony. they say the investigation has turned up a lot of evidence. it is still not known who directed the attack, or why. all six suspects in custody are colombian nationals, set to be part of the mental gangs. one other suspect was shot, or dead, in an exchange with gunfire with police. is the number of dead in hawaii's wildfires are dead, there are questions now about what could have been done to prevent the disaster. our records show state officials underestimated the threat posed by wildfires. next, on cnn newsroom. when the murrays discovered gain scent beads, they fell in love with the irresistible scent. ♪ ♪ huh, huh, so did thr dog roger. ♪ ♪ gain scent beads keep even the stinkiest stuff smelling fsh. she runs and plays like a puppy again. his #2s are perfect! he's a brand new dog, all in less than a year. when people switch their dog's food from kibble to the farmer's dog, they often say that it feels like magic. but there's no magic involved.

say cost untold lives, and as our pamela brown reports, that is not the only concern about hawaii's wildfire paradise. >> reporter: cnn is learning hawaiian officials underestimated the risk of wildfires in a recent report. even as other documents show officials knew they lack resources to prevent and fight fires. >> we had advance notice coming into the summer. this week, the winds, the low humidity, and the fuel in the ignition would have sparked a pretty big fire, that is exactly what we saw. >> reporter: in a state report out just last year, ranking national disasters, officials classified the wildfire risk to human life as low in this color- coded chart. the assessment though, coming years after hurricane lane and the flames of fire in hawaii, ravaging hawaii in oahu in 2015. that perfect storm of conditions highlighted the threat, and how unprepared officials in hawaii were, dealing with such a disaster, but the county report in 2021, noting hurricane lane made small fires as well, and stretch public safety resources, with strong winds and rounding your support. that storm should've been a wake-up call, according to this planning document from hawaii's emergency management agency. other state and local documents show hawaii lags behind in preparedness for the devastating wildfires playing out now, that have killed more than 50 people and left countless people missing and triggered widespread evacuations. a cruel dcjcvu for some residents. >> about four years ago we had another hurricane, and we lost our house. we rebuilt and what happened yesterday, it is killing me right now. we just lost our house again. twice in four years. >> reporter: the 2021 report also makes the troubling point that, despite the increasing number of wildfires, fire prevention was given quote, short shrift in a strategic plan for maui's county department of fire safety. they also said quote, nothing about what can and should be done to prevent fires, which it called a significant oversight. >> given how catastrophic this event was, i think there will be a lot of pressure on the state and other organizations to improve their fire prevention actions that they are taking statewide. >> the increase in fires comes, as maui has faced increasing drought conditions in recent years come a contributing to warnings like this, at a may webinar of the hawaiian wildfire management organization. >> hawaii has a big wildfire problem. we are on par with the most fire prone states in the western continental u.s. the impact of fire are broad and long-lasting. >> reporter: now residents, like mark, are left to rebuild again as the threat for disasters looms, with no clear plan in place. >> i know what i need to do, we have done it before. it just sucks. >> reporter: pamela brown, cnn, washington. >> well, the fires in hawaii, are already the second deadliest in the u.s. in the last 100 years, second only to california's campfire in 2018. all of the others in the top five most deadly fires have also been in california. here's how one maui residents described it. >> i thought wildfires in california, but i never-- i was here yesterday when it flared up. i've never seen something ravage so fast. >> well, the devastating fires of maui were fanned by a combination of strong winds and drier than usual conditions, but how and why did the fire spread so quickly. cnn meteorologist, chad myers explains. >> well, it is obviously good news that hurricane dora has moved away, the high pressure has moved away, the high pressure gradient making the move over hawaii is now gone. it is and gone though is this rainfall deficit. 80% of hawaii in some type of rainfall deficit, and more importantly, in maui county, 16% of the area there under severe drought, and even in the dry areas of maui, just to the west of holly. you say dry areas? our their dry areas in hawaii, it's just a rain forest. no, it's not. only one side of every distinct volcano is here. the other side, that is where it is dry. all mostly desert. so, here's the west side of maui. the wind and the storms, the trades come in from the east to the west. if you are on the east side of these mountains, we will call them, that is where it rains. it rains almost every single day. places receive a 400 and says in hawaii. so there is the rain forest that we talked about. but on the other side, when the air comes on the top, and back down, that is when you get the dry air, and it really looks like a desert on the other side of the rain forest. here you go. something else that may have happened, these canyons that you see coming down from the top of the extinct volcano, they may have acted like a wind tunnel effect, funneling some of that wind as well. we don't know. we will have to drill down on this, this is still years and years and years that we will look at this. something else you probably haven't heard of, since you are from the west, wildland urban interface. what is that? that is when you get wildland here. in fact, those are abandoned sugarcane plantations that are just growing wild shrub grasses and things that burn when they dry out, backed up right against the town itself. and, when you catch the wildland urban interface on fire , that is the risk of sending the fire into a town. it happened in paradise, california with the campfire. it happened all over the world, where you take a piece of land, and you want to put homes up, right up against the trees, because it is so pretty. then you are in that w ui. a lot of this bird, right into town. >> so, thank you, chad myers, for that information. for more information on how to help, it was impacted by the hawaii wildfires, please go to cnn.com/impact. this week, the biden administration announced new rules, limiting investments in chinese technology industries in an effort to protect national security. the restrictions apply to the field of artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and semiconductors. the goal is to prevent american knowledge and money, from flowing to china's military. patient calls the move quote, a blatant act of economic coercion. joining me now, emily benson, director of the project on trade and technology at the center for strategic and international study. so good to have you with us. to help frame our conversation, how important is u.s. investment into china's economy, specifically the tech sector? >> hi, thank you so much for having me on. u.s. investment in china is actually on the decline. so, the group has a study out that was published today that shows a precipitous drop in u.s. investment into high-tech sectors in recent years. and so this comes at a time, amid increasing tension, between china and the united states. at the same time, the investment profile between the two countries is quite different from the trade profile. it is bilateral trade hit a peak last year exceeding $600 billion. >> that is fascinating, that distinction that you just outlined there. the biden administration says that, what underpins this decision is national security. are there some concrete examples out there of ai companies that raise red flags? >> yeah, so, that is really the crux of the question that confronts the administration. which is why it screened outbound capitol and benefits to china. there is currently a gap in u.s. policymaking. we already screened outbound technology and items going to china that could be used by the military. we also screen inbound investments for national security purposes. there's a pretty obvious question about why do we not screened outbound capitol to china? the purpose of the southbound investment screening executive order is to close that gap in u.s. policymaking to ensure that u.s. funds are not being used to advance military capabilities, and there are targeted cases, where we have definitive proof that chinese companies are using u.s. investment to minimum advance high-tech military applications that could potentially be used against foreign entities. >> now, if you happen to be a u.s. company doing business in china right now, what does it mean, will things become more difficult? >> the administration has guided the treasury department to stand up for this new program that would screen outbound capitol open for public comment for the next 40+ days. the administration will take what they've learned in the school. so, if i may company, i'm waiting to see exactly how this rule becomes finalized over time, but either way, it is a very clear signal that relations are changing between the united states and china. this, of course, aligns with the de-risking approach, which is to minimize exposure to china, but not to pull out completely, and that is really reflected in the targeted nature of the administration's approach to an executive order. >> right. you used there, the magic term of the risking, because u.s. started with decoupling. is anybody else following the u.s.'s lead, is the eu following the u.s.'s lead? >> if you international partners maintain some kind of similar authority. that includes the republic of korea, and taiwan, but there are different authorities, so the united states is really taking a lead on establishing this broad commission. they have expressed interest in her speech in march, and again in the g7. more recently in their economic security strategy document in june, and we will probably see more forthcoming guidance from them in september. >> now, we just saw, not so long ago, a host of high-level visits by u.s. officials to china, all part of a concerted effort to reengage with beijing, avoid miscommunication. how does this laced his latest move by the biden administration fit into that strategy? >> well, the ministration, of course, has to walk a fine line amid tensions with china, but overall, the way that this interim rule is written is really a victory for moderates. it could've been much broader. it could have been much harsher. largely it consists of a notification after investment deals have already been concluded. and so, if i were the chinese government i would be at least somewhat relieved that this didn't go much further. and so i think that creates a very viable opportunity for audio and dialogues. and i'm very optimistic that the u.s. secretary of commerce will be able to visit china towards the end of the month. >> emily benson, thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. france are seeking their first world cup semifinals in 12 years, but can they get past co-host, australia?
