The Maui wildfires are now the deadliest natural disaster in state history. At least 80 people have been killed, county officials said Friday night, and many are still missing.

• The blazes remain ongoing, with fire crews battling flare-ups.

• Gov. Josh Green warned that the death toll would likely rise as search and rescue operations continue.

• Evacuations and an assessment of the destruction on Maui are ongoing. An estimate said that about 86% of the damaged structures are homes, and about 4,500 people will need shelter.

• It will cost about $5.52 billion to rebuild, the assessment said.
