A 5.5-magnitude earthquake hit central Myanmar near Meiktila on Sunday, marking one of the strongest aftershocks since the deadly March 28 temblor that killed over 3,600. The quake struck as the country entered its Thingyan holiday, compounding a humanitarian crisis worsened by the earlier 7.7 quake and ongoing civil war. No casualties have been reported so far, but minor damage and panic were reported in Wundwin township. Relief efforts continue amid growing fears of food shortages, health risks, and political suppression of information in quake-hit zones.

Even after a devastating earthquake killed over 1,600 people in Myanmar, the military junta continued launching airstrikes on rebel-held areas. The UN has condemned these attacks as "completely outrageous and unacceptable." Reports confirm that at least three airstrikes targeted the Sagaing region, near the earthquake’s epicenter. Instead of focusing on rescue and relief efforts, the Myanmar military continues its brutal crackdown on resistance strongholds. Is this a war crime? Will the international community intervene? Stay tuned for the latest updates.

Myanmar Earthquake: A powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar, leaving over 1,000 dead and thousands injured. The devastation worsened with a 6.4-magnitude aftershock, causing further destruction. The quake primarily impacted the Sagaing region near Mandalay and was felt in neighboring Thailand. Experts say the earthquake resulted from "strike-slip faulting" along the Sagaing Fault, a major tectonic boundary between the India and Eurasia plates. Rescue operations are underway as countries, including India, China, Russia, and the U.S., send aid.

A series of four earthquakes struck India, Myanmar, and Tajikistan within just one hour on Sunday morning, alarming millions across central and South Asia. The strongest tremor, at magnitude 6.1, hit Tajikistan, while Myanmar experienced a powerful 5.5 aftershock amidst its ongoing quake crisis.
