YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA major earthquake rocked Myanmar and Thailand Friday, destroying infrastructure and killing at least 150 people, with the death toll expected to rise.
The 7.7 magnitude quake struck with the epicenter near Mandalay, Myanmar’s second-largest city, followed by a 6.4 magnitude aftershock.
In Myanmar, one of Asia's poorest nations, at least 140 people have been killed and more than 730 others were injured. The country is already reeling from civil war since the military seized power in 2021 with swathes of territory run by militias, likely complicating rescue and aid efforts.
In neighboring Thailand, at least 10 people have died and 101 are missing from three construction sites, including a high-rise that collapsed.
