[1/5] Yadira Ulloa, 55, sits outside her daughter's home in Lahaina after her home was destroyed during the Lahaina fire on the island of Maui in Hawaii, U.S., August 15, 2023. "God guided me," she said as she recalled the day last Tuesday when a wildfire ripped apart her community. The gas station, she later learned, exploded when the wildfire reached it, and the apartment building burned to the ground. The inferno killed at least 101 people after racing from grasslands outside town into Lahaina. Ulloa, who works as a housekeeper, and her daughter found refuge with an older daughter in the village of Olowalu.
