Following the initial quake, 14 aftershocks were recorded within 10 hours, the strongest measuring 6.7 in magnitude. These tremors were felt as far as Bangkok, Thailand, where a 30-story building collapsed, resulting in at least eight deaths and leaving 81 construction workers missing. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The earthquake’s epicenter was near the city of Sagaing, close to Mandalay. The region’s susceptibility to seismic activity is due to its location along the Sagaing Fault, a major geological fault line. The last significant earthquake in Myanmar occurred in 1912, with a magnitude of 7.9. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In response to the disaster, Myanmar’s government has declared a state of emergency in the affected regions and has requested international assistance. Countries including China, Russia, India, Malaysia, and the United Nations have mobilized aid to support relief efforts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
