US toll put at 6,818 as countries report more missing



NEW YORK, Sept 22 (AFP) -
The death toll from the attacks on the United States stood at 6,818 Saturday
after 11 more bodies were pulled from the ruins of the World Trade Center.

New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Friday the number of missing could still
fluctuate as officials cross check reports of missing people.

More than 60 countries have now reported citizens dead or missing, mostly in
New York, one of the world's most cosmopolitan cities.

But despite continuing round-the-clock rescue efforts, there was now next to
no chance of pulling survivors from the rubble of the World Trade Center.

UNITED STATES officials have given tallies that add up to 6,818 dead or
missing in all the attacks of September 11, but they have still not
established the total number of their nationals among the victims 11 days
after the attack.

In New York, 6,585 people were killed or listed as missing from the World
Trade Center disaster (comprising 252 confirmed dead and 6,333 missing,
presumed dead). Workers have identified 183 bodies, including those of 34
firemen.

At the Pentagon, 189 people are confirmed dead or missing. So far, 117 bodies
have been recovered, of which 52 have been identified as of Friday. The
Department of Defense said search and recovery operations would continue.

The missing figure at both sites include the 157 passengers and crew of the
two hijacked aircraft that crashed into the World Trade Center and the 64 on
the one that flew into the Pentagon.

Adding the 44 on the hijacked plane that crashed in Pennsylvania, the number
of people on the four planes is given as 265.

(American Airlines flight 11, the first to hit the twin towers of the WTC,
was carrying 92 passengers and crew; United Airlines flight 175, which hit
the second tower, had 65 people on board; American Airlines flight 77, which
crashed into the Pentagon, was carrying 64 people; and United Airlines 93,
which crashed in Pennsylvania without reaching its target, had 44 on board.)
