Governor Green Urges Vigilance and Assistance for Those Affected by Devastating Maui Wildfires

Hawaii Governor Josh Green has expressed his wish that all the sirens had gone off during the devastating wildfires that recently occurred on Maui. As of Monday morning, 850 people are still listed as missing, with 27 identified and 11 families having been notified.

Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen said in a video address that the number of identified individuals will rise and the number of missing may decrease, but there will be daily fluctuations in the numbers as family members are added and removed from the lists. He also said he was “both saddened and relieved about these numbers” as the search for those missing continues.

In addition to those missing, 114 people have been confirmed dead. President Joe Biden is scheduled to visit the island soon to survey the damage and meet with those affected by the wildfires.

Governor Green has expressed his sympathies for those affected by the wildfires and urged the public to remain vigilant and take all necessary precautions to ensure their safety. He also said that the state is working to provide assistance to those affected and to ensure that the necessary resources are available to help those in need.
