(CNN) — Relief officials are working to assess the death tolls from the December 26 tsunami that killed tens of thousands of people in more than 11 countries.
CNN has confirmed that the undersea earthquake off Sumatra and the giant waves it triggered killed at least 159,487 people.
Figures are from government officials or agencies unless otherwise indicated. A discrepancy between CNN and some wires still exists because some media outlets are now combining missing and dead totals, particularly India’s.
