control and on now they have killed at least six people. footage from need tourist hot spot shows a decimated community that looks more like a war zone then a tropical haven. many people do not have power or cell phone service. and thousands are in shelters as emergency crews carry out search and rescue operations. the national weather service says that the heavy winds fanning the flames should weaken later this week. but very little rain is expected. a crew member from a charter boat described his escape after he made it safely to the maui airport. >> i was the last one off the top. when the firestorm came through it. and took everything with it. and i just ran out. iran's south. helped everybody i could along the way. >> the fires also spreading on

the island of hawaii. known as the big island. the county mayor says that two new brush fires have erupted in recent hours. and i do want to bring in reporter jeremy lead from affiliate k itv who is live at the airport. in maui so jeremy what, is the situation at the airport right now as people wait and try to get out? >> rosemary. the airport here in mali is bustling. behind me, a long line of tsa. those who are trying to get to another island. back to the mainland, anywhere but here. it has been a collective effort with a sheraton sending five buses from just north of lahaina. i just spoke to somebody who got off of the bus and told me that they received a law enforcement escort. they could see an apartment burning from the highway. just in the five pm hour local time. that is just a little more than two hours ago. so it continues to be a very

precarious situation. with law enforcement only letting vehicles out of lahaina the. the surrounding resort areas but not letting people back in. some braced the highway this morning. driving a twisting, winding road. just to get to the airport. but now those buses are coming in one by one. from the resort and people are doing what they can to get off of the island. the two major carriers for inter island flights, southwest and also hawaiian have been offering 19-dollar flights just to get people to honolulu. or to get people over to lee who we on coli. or cone on the big island direct from kaka who airport. where it has been busy all day. some people have had 12 hour to 24-hour waits. but they tell me that they understand it's all about perspective. a family from texas says it really puts everything into

context. considering they are on vacation, that there are others who have lost their homes, their businesses. people that i know, colleagues of mine. she has had to evacuate her home. one person opening an art gallery. staying in a u-haul last night, whole life up in flames. images a startling to those visit and those local who live here on the island. back to you in the studio. so many people living there having to deal with this. seeing these tourists mainly having to get out. you mentioned those additional buses on the. way how long do authorities think that it will take to get everyone who needs to get out evacuated? >> that is the big question, because we do not have

communication with that side of the island. with the infrastructure down. people have been listening to radio to understand how to get back here. we are learning more and more, hour by hour as these buses arrive. thank you so much, back to you in the studio. >> jimmy lee talking to us there from the airport in mali. all of those people lined up trying to get out. moon soledad is the owner of the empire fish market, a seafood restaurant on malawi's northern coast. joins us on the line from taku. i know it's a very good difficult time. you have lost your restaurant. and it burned down as a result of these wildfires. i would have and exactly. >> it started as a brush fire. then the winds were having really strong gusts.

and it just blew out of control so quickly. that none of us even had time to understand what's going to happen. my partner and atoll who was at the restaurant, right before the hyena really started burning. said it was like a war zone. gas lines, because of all the restaurants. , this community. it's been the focal point of tourists for many years. completely at a loss for words. we will off the pick up and

clean up and rebuild because you still can't get over the. you are in a great deal of shock along with the people there on the island of maui. you've actually been living there for more than 30 years. i've never seen anything like this. >> no, no. you've never seen anything like this on maui. this is the biggest. the whole town is completely burned to the ground. everything is gone. people have lost homes. there's been a lot of loss of life. is absolutely just horrific. i know we have such a strong community. on things like this, happen people do come together and i believe we will rebuild. it but it's definitely taken the wind out of all of our sales at the moment.

>> totally understand that. i did want to ask you received any warnings from authorities from these wildfires indicating the situation could get as bad as this so very quickly. were there any warnings at all? >> unfortunately, i don't believe there any. once it happened so quickly. we are told 2:00 that the fire was under control. and by 5:00 it was an absolute disaster. so i am disappointed and upset with the leadership but i understand that natural disasters happen. and sometimes it's out of our control. it is one of those things that the wind was so strong. i mean we are getting i think 80-mile-per-hour gusts in line so it's really hard to control. and contain that and then you mix that with some would houses

and you know the highlight is really old it's been around a long time. the banyan tree decelerated 150 years or some like that. so we just celebrated seven years in the building we've been in. we actually own five fish markets across the island. and that was one of our most popular ones. so it is really devastating for everybody involved. and we are still worried about people and still can't find some people so it's really frightening. >> yeah, it is a terrifying experience for you and for all of those people around you. for everyone on malawi and of course the rest of the country is thinking of all of you. thank you so much for talking with. the >> well donald trump's legal troubles are expected to get a whole lot worse next week in georgia. sources say the fulton county prosecutor will pursue more than a dozen indictments of the

former president and his allies. and these are state charges separate from the federal indictments brought by special counsel jack smith. more now from cnn political correspondent sara murray. >> fulton county district attorney fani willis is expected to seek indictments against more than a dozen individuals when she goes to present her case before a grand jury next week. sources are telling me and my colleagues of course that fani willis has been overseeing this sprawling criminal investigation into efforts by donald trump and allies to overturn the 2020 election. trump has spin clear publicly that he expects to be indicted for a fourth time. and of course is at the heart of her investigation. but there are many other avenues that she is looking at such as a voting systems breach and georgia. sources are telling us their people who participated in those efforts to believe that they could face charges as part

of the investigation next week as well. again, we've seen signs that we are getting closer. seeing the ramp, seeing the security perimeter on the phone courthouse. and we could be just days away from learning who exactly is going to be charged in this roughly two and a half year investigation into donald trump and his associates. sarah murray, cnn, washington. >> the fbi says that it is reviewing the shooting that happened wednesday when it's special agents killed a man in utah. who allegedly made threats against president biden. a law enforcement source tells cnn that the agents were trying to arrest the man identified as craig robertson and we're giving him commands when he pointed a gun at them. he was facing three federal charges related to the alleged threats. authorities say he also posted threats online against vice president kamala harris and other democratic politicians. as well as prosecutors who had brought charges against former

direction of bakhmut, multiple and berdyansk. in russia, officials have opened an investigation after a powerful explosion rocked an industrial plant near moscow. at least 16 people have been injured eight others are unaccounted for. russian state media reports the blast occurred in a pyrotechnics warehouse on the site. but after recent incidents inside of russian, residents remain on edge. cnn's matthew chance has this story. >> the explosion shook the russian city sending a dark mushroom cloud. billowing into the skies. >> closer to the, blast you could see the windows falling from the buildings above. leaving residents shocked. at that as a station.

a local records these images of her destroyed sewing business and suggests that a drone might have been spotted by one of her friends moments before the explosion. outside, a local reporter spots what appears to be an artillery shell on the ground. though officially the blast is being cast as an industrial accident, at a fireworks factory. russian officials denying sabotage. or that this is a sensitive military plant, making optical equipment like night vision goggles for russia's war. this place is not being used to produce mechanical optics for ages says the moscow government the scene. it is only pyrotechnics made here he insists. still, amid an upsurge of attacks at home, russians have good reason to be nervous.

partisan group denies russians are being coerced. telling cnn that if people were not angry with the authorities, they would not do anything, the kremlin he says wants to hide the true level of discontent. >> at the moment, there is no real evidence that the latest factory explosion was anything more than the devastating safety breach officials claim. but with the impact of war, now increasingly felt at home. it has left many russians on edge. matthew chance, cnn, moscow. meantime, russia's defense ministry says that two drones headed towards moscow were shot down hours ago by the country's air defense forces. two drones were also shot down at the city of sebastopol in crimea. in the ministry says that another nine drones were suppressed and crashed into the black sea. no damage or casualties have been reported.

>> mexico's foreign minister met top u.s. officials wednesday. discussed the new border buoys installed by texas along the border. mexico claims the bowie break a treaty between countries. maybe in mexican territory. u.s. justice department has

demanded texas remove them. governor greg abbott remains he has constitutional authority to protect the state borders. joining me now is attorney and cnn opinion writer real ray has. he is also an immigration analyst at usa today. appreciate you joining us. >> of course. democratic lawmakers visited the rio grande area tuesday to observe the barriers being used by texas governor greg abbott to keep migrants out of the united states. focusing their attention particularly on the use of barbed wire barriers. and massive buoys in the river. what do you expect to come of this? given legal action against texas has had no success so far and how much do you fear this might simply end up being yet another photo op? >> right, well let us start with the good news here. the good news here seems to be

that democrat lawmakers are trying to draw attention to something of a humanitarian crisis. that has been intentionally created, intentionally created by governor abbott as part of law operation lone star. using these blue eastbound with razor wire across the river. now cnn and the houston chronicle are the publications have reported on different drownings, reports of children being pushed back into the water, a woman suffering a miscarriage trapped in the water. so this is a very harmful situation. the good is that these lawmakers are trying to draw attention to it. in july, the biden administration sued texas over the practice. >> in mexico's previously filed complaints about governor abbott's border buoys on the basis that u.s. mexico border treaty state that the river is to run unimpeded. so what was likely discussed on wednesday when mexico's foreign

minister met with u.s. officials? >> well two things. one, we had the treaty situation where texas is in a sense taking immigration law into its own hands with the governor's efforts to control a portion of the river and deter migration. and it is called the u.s. mexico border for a reason, it is not the texas mexico border. in terms of international relations. so of course the mexican foreign minister is bringing that up. also expressing concern about the environmental impact on the mexican side of these buoys and the potential harm to mexican nationals. >> what is the solution to america's immigration crisis at the southern border? and is there any true political will to solve this humanely? >> well, we reality is that we do have solutions that we can implemented at the united states southern border. for example, maybe potentially discussing what we want our

asylum system to look like. maybe updating our enforcement capabilities for the 21st century. so the solutions exist. the problem as you have mentioned, the political will is not there. republicans see any type of authorized crossings, they view that as open borders. and they have weaponized that issue against democrats. on the democratic side, they are very leery. they seem to be very concentrated to move forward on advancing immigration reform. taking a stance. the biden administration seems reluctant to take a firm stance with asylum seekers and who refugee at the border, because they are aware republicans so easily use this against them. and we see that in the low approval ratings on immigration, with 31%. we see that in the pictures. we see at the border the crossings are up or down, we tend to see pictures of people in crisis. of our border patrol, our law enforcement overwhelmed. and as a fact check, this

summer after the asylum restrictions went into effect, unauthorized crossings at the border did drop to a two-year level. but still, this is a very contentious issue it seems like the political will is continually a elusive across multiple administrations. >> yeah. i'll read, as thank you for joining, us appreciate it. >> my pleasure. >> >> angry reaction from china's government after the biden administration announces new rules that could sharply limit u.s. firms from doing business with china's high tech industries. we will explain.

in key technology industries in china. here in hong kong and macau. that could be used to enhance beijing's military capabilities. look, this was long expected and now we know the details. it'll target three sectors, semiconductors and micro tonics. want them information technology. and certain artificial intelligence systems. this means that u.s. private equity joint venture capital and greenfield investments will not be allowed to invest and help china develop technologies that could support its military modernization and undermine u.s. national security. you treasury department released a statement. let me read to you. it says the biden administration is committed to keeping america safe. defending national security through appropriately defending technology is critical to the next military innovation. rosemary, this is a national security action not an economic one.

but china is not buying it. beijing strongly believes that the u.s. is trying to contain its rise. the chinese commerce ministry said it was gravely concerned by the order whilst the foreign ministry released the following statement, let me read that to you. it is a blatant acof economic coercion and scientific and technological bullying. the real purpose to deprive china of its right to development and safeguard its own interest. this comes as tensions between the u.s. and china are at their most strained in decades. we've seen a parade of top u.s. military administration officials visit beijing. biden clearly wants to get the relationship back on track. that this new order, which we believe would be implemented next year rosemary could certainly affect those plans. >> all right, our thanks to anna coren joining us live from hong kong. and thank you for joining us, i'm rosemary church, for our
