Rescue efforts continue in Myanmar as quake victims mount, but lack of equipment hampers operations
Rescue efforts continue in Myanmar after a powerful earthquake damaged the historic Mahamuni Pagoda. Monks are leading recovery efforts despite widespread destruction. Rescue workers, lacking heavy lifting equipment, struggle to retrieve survivors. With limited electricity and water, rapid body disposal is necessary to prevent health risks. Crematoriums are overwhelmed, conducting mass cremations, including in open spaces. Families search through ashes to recover remains. As more ambulances arrive, the scale of the disaster continues to unfold. Al Jazeera’s Tony Cheng reports from Mandalay, Myanmar.
