The \u200c<a title=\"WATCH: Christmas Tree Outside Of Fox News Gets Torched, Police Take Man Into Custody\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-christmas-tree-outside-of-fox-news-gets-torched-police-take-man-into-custody\/\">flames quickly spread<\/a>, forcing the evacuation of the entire area. \u2063Firefighters bravely battled the \u2063inferno, and after several \u200dintense hours, \u200bthey managed to gain control over 85% of the fire. The evacuation order \u2064was \u2062lifted, bringing relief to the affected community.<\/p>\n<h3>Other Fires Continue to \u2063Blaze<\/h3>\n<p>While the Anapuni fire has been partially contained, several other fires \u2064continue to rage across different areas of Maui. \u2063The Olinda fire, which has burned an estimated 1,081 acres, is now 85% contained. The Kula \u2062fire, after \u200bscorching\u2064 202 acres, is currently 90% contained. Similarly, the Lahaina fire, which has left a devastating \u200dtrail of destruction across 2,170 acres, is also 90% contained. Fortunately, two fires have already been extinguished, bringing some respite to the island.<\/p>\n<h3>Maui&#8217;s Tragic Loss<\/h3>\n<p>The death toll in Maui stands at a heartbreaking 115. The Maui Police Department \u2062has identified 40 victims and notified their \u200cfamilies, while 8 other victims have been identified but their families have yet to be contacted. In a desperate attempt to <a title=\"New fire in Maui prompts evacuation, many still missing.\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/additional-fire-in-maui-causes-temporary-evacuation-as-hundreds-remain-unaccounted-for\/\">locate missing individuals<\/a>, \u2062the\u200c county is seeking the \u2064assistance of locals. The FBI has compiled a list of 388 reported missing persons, and their names will be considered valid if both their first and last names match the records.<\/p>\n<p>Efforts to search for survivors continue relentlessly.\u2063 As of Saturday, a staggering 99% of the Lahaina\u200d area has been\u200b thoroughly searched, leaving no \u2062stone unturned.<\/p>\n<h3>A \u200bRecord Low in Fire Activity<\/h3>\n<p>While the fires\u2064 in Maui have caused \u2063immense devastation, it\u200b is worth noting\u2063 that they are \u2064part of a larger picture. Across 16 states, there are currently 82 active\u2063 fires. These fires have collectively burned a total of 638,633 acres. However, when considering the total acreage burned since the beginning\u2063 of the year, this figure represents a record low since 2000.<\/p>\n<p>For more\u200c information on this ongoing situation, \u200bplease <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">click here<\/a> to read the full\u2063 article from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A brush fire erupted in Maui, Hawaii, causing brief havoc before firefighters arrived.
