STORYLINE:
Residents of Mandalay in Myanmar queued for handouts of food and water on Wednesday as the death toll from last week’s massive earthquake passed 3,000.
The quake hit midday Friday, toppling thousands of buildings, collapsing bridges and buckling roads.
The death toll rose to 3,003 on Wednesday, with more than 4,500 people injured, MRTV reported. Local reports suggest much higher figures.
The casualty figures are widely expected to rise. The earthquake hit a wide swath of the country, leaving many areas without power, telephone or cell connections and damaging roads and bridges, making the full extent of the devastation hard to assess.
Most of the reports so far have come from Mandalay, Myanmar’s second-largest city, which was near the epicenter of the earthquake, and Naypyitaw, the capital.
