Burma’s ruling military junta has declared a temporary 20-day ceasefire as the death toll from last week’s earthquake hit 3,085 people. Armed resistance groups had previously also announced a temporary ceasefire. Rescue and relief efforts have been hampered by the recent slashing of U.S. foreign aid under President Trump. Many survivors in Mandalay, near the earthquake’s epicenter, are in difficult-to-access areas and remain without homes, power and phone service.

Daw Win Mar: “For now, we sleep on the ground with mattresses. Some people who still have mosquito nets set them up, while those who don’t just sleep under the open sky.”

At least 22 people died in Thailand, most of them killed in the collapse of a high-rise that was under construction when the earthquake struck.
