Around 20 bodies have so far been recovered from Kibbutz Be'eri by personnel from the rescue and recovery organization ZAKA.
Teams are checking each house for possible explosive traps before entering and state that the clean-up will take time.
Be'eri was among the communities attacked by Hamas terrorists on Saturday morning as they crossed the border into Israel, killing at least 700 Israelis and wounding at least 2,400.
