Panic in Myanmar: Collapsing Buildings and Mass Evacuations

The earthquake has claimed at least 59 lives, with over 200 injured, and the numbers are expected to rise as rescue operations continue.

In Mandalay and Naypyidaw, several buildings collapsed, forcing thousands to flee into the streets. The worst-hit areas include:

• Mandalay University, where multiple structures were reduced to rubble.
• Bagan’s ancient temples, with many centuries-old pagodas crumbling.
• A high-rise rooftop collapse, trapping dozens of residents under debris.

Thailand and Beyond: Tremors Felt Across Asia

The quake’s reach extended far beyond Myanmar, shaking buildings in Thailand, India, China, and Bangladesh. In Bangkok, a 30-story building under construction collapsed, trapping 43 workers. Videos show office towers swaying dangerously, while alarmed residents rushed down staircases in fear of aftershocks.

State of Emergency Declared

Myanmar’s military government declared a state of emergency, urging international aid as the country struggles to respond to the disaster. The Red Cross and global rescue teams are mobilizing, but blocked roads and unstable structures are slowing relief efforts.

What’s Next?

With aftershocks continuing, authorities are warning of further structural collapses. The dramatic images of overflowing rooftop pools and swaying skyscrapers serve as a chilling reminder of the quake’s force.

As Myanmar and its neighboring countries assess the damage, the world watches in anticipation of further developments.
