First it was 12 firefighters, as of last night. Then it was 18 unaccounted for this morning. I wouldn't be surprised if it was whole companies of firefighters that perished in the 2nd blast, let alone the toxic fumes.
Looking at the pictures of the aftermath (like that shell of a building), I wouldn't be surprised if hundreds or even a thousand people died. It's hard to count the dead when they're vaporized, incinerated, or in tiny little pieces.
Godspeed.
