New satellite images show the scale of damage almost one year after deadly wildfires ripped through the historic West Maui town Lahaina — but also show signs of a community gradually recovering.
The wildfires on August 8, 2023, were the worst natural disaster in Hawaii's history, destroying more than 3,900 properties and killing more than 100 people, according to Hawaii officials. Local, state and federal agencies have been working to help Maui residents tackle the arduous process of rebuilding.
A CBS News analysis of satellite imagery shows signs of recovery but widespread damage remains. The imagery shows cleared lots as debris removal progresses, greenery returning and construction of new temporary housing sites for displaced residents.

The federal trial for three former Memphis police officers charged in the death of Tyre Nichols is set to begin jury selection on Monday.
