A 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar last Friday, leaving over 3,000 dead and thousands more injured.
Myanmar has long been vulnerable to earthquakes, with 14 major earthquakes in the past century. The Sagaing Fault, a notorious seismic hotspot, has a long history of quakes, but the recent one is among the strongest in its history.

On Thursday, April 3, 2025, the ruling junta said the deaths rose to 3,03,085,th 4,715 injured and 341 missing.
The World Health Organization has flagged a rising risk of waterborne illnesses, warning that Myanmar’s already fragile healthcare system is on the brink.

Myanmar was already in crisis mode before the quake hit. Myanmar has been embroiled in civil war since the military coup in 2021, which ousted the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi. The junta’s iron grip has left basic services in tatters, making disaster response even more chaotic.
