Emergency teams had already ended searches for survivors two days after Myanmar’s March 28 earthquake killed more than 50 people in Mandalay Region’s Wundwin Township.
“We wrapped up our rescue operations on March 30,” said the representative of a local social welfare team. “The death toll stands at 51, with 81 people injured and 305 houses damaged.”
Wundwin Township, located some 70 miles south of Mandalay, sustained severe damage from the quake, including the collapse of pagodas, monasteries, and other religious buildings.
