More than 2,000 people have died after a deadly earthquake in Myanmar, running the Golden Rescue Window rapidly stops rapidly, running to find those who survive with rescue workers, sniper dogs and paramedics, which reduces realistic opportunities to survive. Amidst anarchy, stories of existence are beginning to emerge from zero as rescue teams struggle with the scale of destruction.
A video emerged on social media, in which an elderly woman and her two teenagers were trapped in a small pocket of air under the debris of their house. The girls filmed their desperate Roe for help as they used a butter knife to explode on a broken concrete to attract the attention of the rescue team.

The rescue team was stranded under the rubble for a horrific 15 hours before the rescue team pulled him for safety.
Two other women experienced a similar terror, when they were waiting for five aggressive hours to find them under the wreckage of their collapsed hotel in the mandal, where they were sitting under a broken roof between a pile of debris.
The pair, who does not want to identify, shared his borrowing ordinance during an interview with CNN.
CNN told CNN, “We were trapped in total darkness, but the good thing is that we had a phone and we could use its lights to see. If we didn’t have it, we could have died. We could see to clean the rubble over each other,” one of the women told CNN.
Another woman said, “Stuck, we learned that nothing is permanent, and the most important thing before death is to live a happy life and do many good things. Do not do bad things, because karma will follow you.”
But along with miraculous rescue, stories of disastrous loss have also taken regeneration through Myanmar.
Two hundred Buddhist monks were crushed by a collapse monastery, fifty children were killed when a preschool one fell into orbit, and seven hundred Muslims were killed while praying in mosques for Ramadan.
Save without food, shelter
Help groups, reaching the worst hit areas of Myanmar, said that there was an immediate need for shelters, food and water for the remaining people. The Civil War in Myanmar, where Junta seized power in the coup in 2021, has made complex efforts to reach the injured and became homeless by the largest earthquake of the Southeast Asian nation in a century.
The tight control of the jute on the communication network and the damage to the roads, bridges and other infrastructure caused by the quake have intensified the challenges for the aid workers.
The United Nations body said in a report, “In the most difficult areas … the community struggles to meet their basic needs, such as access to clean water and hygiene, while emergency teams make tireless efforts to detect the remaining people and provide life-saving help.”
The International Rescue Committee said that shelter, food, water and medical help were all required to places like Mandalay near the seveers of the earthquake.
“After the earthquake remained through the terror of the earthquake, people are now afraid of afterchox and sleeping outside on the streets or in open fields.”
“Tents are immediately needed, because even those whose houses remain intact are very afraid of sleeping indoors.”
7.7 The magnitude earthquake, which hit around lunch on Friday, was the strongest to hit the Southeast Asian country in more than a century, topped the ancient pagoda and modern buildings.
The state media has reported Myanmar’s Cascalty at 2,065, with more than 3,900 injured and at least 270 missing.
