Good morning.

Eight hundred and fifty people are still missing after devastating wildfires this month, the Maui county mayor has announced.

What else did he say? Biden stressed the federally sponsored recovery efforts that are currently under way. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema) has given out tens of thousands of blankets and meals to displaced people and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development is working with Lahaina residents to move them from temporary shelters into temporary housing.

Was anyone hurt? The Russian ministry said no one had been hurt in the attack and the fire had been quickly extinguished. The Novgorod region lies north-west of Moscow, hundreds of kilometres from Russia's border with Ukraine.
