        Yeah, just looked again. Multiple articles stating “at least 1000 missing” with a NY post article saying “1300”.

        I also read yesterday that they had only looked through about 3% of the burn area.

        So expect that death toll to rise significantly ☹️

          Per the article above, they’ve searched 32% of the burn area. Still horrific, but better than only 3% searched

            Yeah. Happy to hear they’re searching much quicker and yet the casualty count hasn’t increased like I thought it would.
