Ruined Nation: Myanmar Battles Aftershocks Amid Global Response to Worst Quake in Decades

escue teams from China, Hong Kong, and India began their second day of searching for victims and survivors on Monday, after the devastating 7.7-magnitude earthquake that struck central Myanmar on Friday.

The earthquake, centered 20 kilometers northeast of Mandalay, left a trail of destruction across Mandalay, Sagaing, Myingyan, Naypyitaw, and Kyaukse. Myanmar workers are also among almost 100 missing or dead from a high-rise that collapsed while under construction in Bangkok, as quake tremors rippled into India and China’s Yunnan Province.
