Officials have confirmed 96 fatalities from the Maui wildfire, but firefighters aren't done battling the blaze.
Several wildfires continue to burn in Maui as of early Monday as officials raise the death toll from one of the deadliest wildfires in U.S. history.
A fire several miles away in the Upcountry and Kula regions of Maui have burned 678 acres. Officials said that the wildfire is 60% contained, but hot spots remain in gulches and other hard-to-reach places. Maui County said air support will be used on Monday to try to get an upper hand on the hot spots.
Gov. Josh Green welcomed Federal Emergency Management Agency officials on Sunday to examine the aftermath in Lahaina. He said 500 rooms will be set aside for housing, paid for by FEMA.
