BBC World Service - BBC OS, Hawaii: Death toll passes 100

We speak to three people affected by the devastating wildfires in Hawaii.

Authorities in Hawaii have released the first names of victims as the death toll from the wildfires passes 100. We get the latest and speak to three women living there, including one who lost her childhood home in the now devastated town of Lahaina on Maui island.

Ukrainian captives say they were subjected to torture, including frequent beatings and electric shocks whilst in custody at a detention facility in south-western Russia. We get the latest from BBC correspondent Hugo Bachega.

England have beaten Australia 3-1 to reach the women's World Cup final, we hear from fans who were watching.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
