Maui Wildfires: Update on number of missing people

In the  aftermath of the Maui wildfires, the number of people still unaccounted for has seen a remarkable decrease. Hawaii Governor Josh Green announced on Friday that the count of missing persons had significantly dropped to 66, while a week ago the figures stood at 385.
Hawaii Governor provided the  update on the situation via a video shared on his social media platform. He noted, "It's been one month today since the crisis began." Despite the challenges faced during this month-long ordeal, the fatality count has, fortunately, remained at 115. However, the most striking revelation was the substantial reduction in the FBI's missing persons list, which had stood at 385 and has now reached 66.
Josh Green also spoke about the  ongoing efforts by the Maui Police Department to investigate 41 missing person reports.
He  also addressed the living conditions of those displaced by the wildfires. He revealed that approximately 7,000 people were still residing in hotel rooms, while an additional 1,100 had found temporary refuge in Airbnbs. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the government has taken proactive steps to transition these displaced residents into more stable long-term housing arrangements.
As the community and authorities rally together to overcome the challenges posed by this crisis, the collective focus remains on ensuring the safety and well-being of all affected residents and restoring their lives to a semblance of normalcy.
