Before and after footage has shown the extent of damage caused to Maui's historic town of Lahaina after wildfires swept through last week.

Hawaii Governor Josh Green says the fires are the "largest natural disaster in Hawaii state history" and that 80% of the beach-front town is "gone".

Satellite images have shared the scale of the damage and rubble where businesses and homes once stood.

At least 96 people are now believed to have died as a result of the fires which spread across Maui.
