Hello. The first funerals have taken place in Guatemala for people killed by the violent eruption of the Fuego Volcano. Sixty-nine people are now known to have died, but many others are missing, and search and rescue operations are continuing. Aleem Maqbool is there. The first funeral since the eruption included several members of the same family, including a three-year-old girl. Thousands have had to leave their homes and are now sheltered in schools and churches. The closer we got to the volcano, the more the air hung gray with ash. We drove through abandoned neighborhoods, clothes still on washing lines，ash-covered fruit stalls left as people ran for their lives. The volcano itself is shrouded in smoke, but there's little else looking at it. They gets away the catastrophic violence it roared. So many people are still missing; so many body still unidentified, and there are fears of further eruptions.

Such activity would violate the conditions of Mr. Manafort's release and could result in a judge revoking his bail.
