Rescue workers in Myanmar have pulled a woman alive from the rubble of the Great Wall Hotel in Mandalay nearly 60 hours after a powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck the country. The woman is reported to be in stable condition, offering a rare moment of hope amid the devastation.
The earthquake, which hit on March 28, has caused widespread destruction, leaving thousands trapped or missing. Officials report over 1,700 deaths, with the toll expected to rise. The hardest-hit areas are struggling with collapsed buildings, blocked roads, and damaged infrastructure, making rescue efforts challenging.
International aid has started arriving, with India launching Operation Brahma to send emergency supplies and rescue teams. The United Nations is also coordinating relief efforts for thousands of survivors. However, ongoing security concerns in conflict-affected regions complicate aid distribution.
Rescue teams continue their search for survivors as hopes remain that more people can be saved from the debris.
