The death toll from Typhoon Haiyan that struck the central Philippines on November 8 has passed 6,000 with nearly 1,800 people missing, officials have said.
Twenty-seven bodies, all unidentified, were among the latest to be recovered under debris in typhoon-stricken coastal areas including the hardest hit city of Tacloban, said Major Reynaldo Balido, the spokesman for the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council on Friday.
