Before and after satellite photos show devastating aftermath of Maui's deadly wildfires

The wildfires sweeping across Maui are some of the deadliest in the U.S. in recent years

Wildfires devastated parts of Hawaii's Maui island this week, with the blazes destroying hundreds of buildings, displacing hundreds of families and killing dozens.

Satellite photos provided by imaging company Maxar show Lahaina Town – once a kingdom capital and the former home of King Kamehamaha III – reduced to ashes on Maui's West Side. The fires did not spare Lahaina Harbor, according to town updates, nor did it leave its beloved banyan tree uncharred.
