community. it was before the flames. it and almost one week now since those fires begin, what or who is being held responsible for this tragedy? i asked our correspondents with e mail and all the on in washington. well, investigations are ongoing, but the fact that you had very strong hurricane wins and dry conditions and lots of hawaii out for a long time. by the time this happened that of course contributed to the wildfires . but what we're, what we're also seeing is multiple points of failure in the print, paired this and also the response. so as we heard there in the report, hawaii has the world's largest warning system, but those sirens did not sound when they needed to, and warning alerts sent to mobile phones of the residents. there, perhaps power outages impeded their access or the receipt of these messages. and we're also hearing that to the utility provider, hawaii electric is now facing
