Hi there, thank you for being with us. We begin with an ongoing tragedy in hawaii. At least 36 people have died in wildfires and President Joe Biden has issued a major Disaster Declaration. Hawaiis governor says it was the deadliest Natural Disaster for hawaii for generations and he expects the number of deaths to go up significantly. Thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes and hospitals are treating patients for burns and smoke inhalation. Our North America correspondent nomia iqbal has this report. Much of the Hawaiian Island of maui is now scorched earth. A pilot can hardly believe what hes seeing. Oh, my gosh, look at the harbour this looks like baghdad or something. The Historic Town of lahaina barely exists any more. Since the fire began on tuesday, it has ripped through, fuelled by Hurricane Force winds, leaving burnt out cars on once busy streets, and instead of historic buildings, there are Smoking Piles of rubble. Everybody still out here, its time to go for
