Hope to find the survivors of Myanmar earthquake, blur, the death toll is expected to rise
Rescuers rescued a 63-year-old woman from the rubble of a building in Myanmar’s capital on Tuesday, but the hope has faded to find many more survivors of the violent earthquake that killed more than 2,700 people, causing a humanitarian crisis caused by a civil war. A saving is working through the debris of a collapsed building to the earthquake in Myanmar (AP), the fire department in Naypyitaw said the woman was successfully pulled out of the ruin 91 hours after he was buried when the building collapsed in the 7.7 earthquake that hit the afternoon on Friday. Experts believe the likelihood that survivors will fall dramatically after 72 hours. The number of the death toll predicts that the head of Myanmar’s military government, senior Gen. Little Aung Hlaing, to a forum for assistance donations in Naypyitaw, said that 2.719 people were now found dead, injured by 4.521 others and missing 441, reports Myanmar’s MRTV television. He said Friday’s earthquake is the second most powerful in the country’s recorded history following an earthquake from 8 east of Mandalay in May 1912. It is generally expected to rise. The earthquake hit a wide part of the country and left many areas without power, telephone or cell connections and harmful roads and bridges, which is the full extent of the destruction difficult to judge. Most of the reports so far come from Mandalay, Myanmar’s second largest city, which was near the epicenter of the earthquake, and Naypyitaw, the capital. “The needs are great, and they are rising by the hour,” says Julia Rees, Unicef’s deputy representative for Myanmar.

Myanmar’s fire department said that 403 people were rescued in Mandalay and that 259 bodies had been found so far. In one incident, 50 Buddhist monks who conducted a religious inquiry in a monastery were killed when the building collapsed, and it is thought that 150 were buried in the rubble. Structural damage is extensive. The World Health Organization said that more than 10,000 buildings generally collapsed or severely damaged by the earthquake. The earthquake also shook the neighboring Thailand, which caused a high building to collapse under construction and buried many workers.

In general, 21 people were killed and 34 injured in Bangkok, mainly on the construction site. In Myanmar, the search and rescue efforts in the area in question briefly stopped on Tuesday while people paid a minute in a quiet tribute to the dead. Relief efforts that move at a sluggish pace of foreign auxiliary workers have slowly arrived to help with the rescue efforts, but the progress has run in many places due to lack of heavy machinery.

The state of Global New Light of Myanmar newspaper reported on Tuesday that a team of Chinese rescue workers had rescued four people from the ruins of an apartment complex the day before. This included a 5-year-old and a pregnant woman who were trapped for more than 60 hours. It was also reported that two teenagers could crawl out of the ruin of the same building using their cellphone flashlights to help lead them. Rescuers could then use details of what they told them to find their grandmother and brother or sister. International rescue teams from different countries are on the scene, including Russia, China, India, the United Arab Emirates and several countries in Southeast Asia. A small US Agency for International Rating Team for Development Ramps showed up on Tuesday to determine how to respond best as a result of limited US resources as a result of reducing the foreign aid budget and the disregard of the agency as an independent operation. According to a US official, the three -person team waited for visas before undertaking the neighboring Thailand after a weekend decision to grant $ 2 million to Myanmar. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the arrival of the team has not yet been announced in public. Aids warning as officials against disease risk, several countries have meanwhile promised millions of help to help Myanmar and humanitarian aid organizations with the monumental task ahead. Even before the earthquake, more than 3 million people were displaced from their homes by the brutal civil war of Myanmar, and almost 20 million were in need, according to the UN, many were missing in basic medical care and standard vaccinations, and the destruction of water and sanitation infrastructure by the earthquake and the overbearing of the our office, the choral of the human manner. raised. Business. “Vulnerability for respiratory infections, skin diseases, vector-borne diseases such as dengue fever, and vaccine-preventable diseases such as measles,” Ocha said in his latest report. The start of the monsoon season is also a shelter, especially with the monsoon season threatening. Since the earthquake, many people have slept outside, either because houses were destroyed or for fear of aftershocks. Civil War complicates disaster relief that Myanmar’s army seized in 2021 of the democratically elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi, which arose that turned into a significant armed resistance and a cruel civil war. Government forces lost control of many of Myanmar, and many places were dangerous or impossible for help groups to reach even before the earthquake. Military attacks and those of some anti-military groups did not stop in the aftermath of the earthquake, although the shadow opposition national unity government called a unilateral ceasefire for its powers. The nug, founded by elected lawmakers discharged in 2021, called on the international community to ensure that humanitarian assistance is directly provided to the earthquake victims, requesting ‘vigilance against any attempts by the military junta to hinder or hinder a humanitarian assistance,’ says it can ‘have devastating consequences’. The ceasefire plan for the armed wing of the Nug, called the People’s Defense Force, would have little effect on the battlefield, but it could attract more international condemnation of continued operations by the military, including air strikes reported by independent media. A second armed opposition group, a coalition of three powerful ethnic minority guerrilla armies called the Three Brotherhood Alliance, announced on Tuesday that it will also implement a monthly unilateral ceasefire. However, it seems that little Aung Hlaing rejects the implementation of a ceasefire and in his speech on Tuesday said that the military will continue to take the necessary defense measures against some ethnic armed groups that are not performing battle operations, but that he has done military training, which he says amount to hostile action. It was not immediately clear whether the army hindered humanitarian aid. In the past, it initially refused to allow foreign rescue teams or many emergency supplies to cyclone Narchist in 2008, which resulted in more than 100,000 deaths. Even once it allowed foreign aid, it was with serious restrictions. In this case, however, few Aung Hlaing said on the day of the earthquake that the country would accept help from the outside. Tom Andrews, a monitor on rights in Myanmar commissioned by the UN-backed Human Rights Council, said on X that to facilitate help should stop military attacks. “The focus in Myanmar must be to save lives, not to take,” he said.
