Myanmar’s military government said that at least 2,000 people died last Friday with an earthquake of 7.7.
According to the US Geological Survey, the number of deaths of more than 10,000 people is a strong possibility.
The Burma army, which has dismissed civilian casualties after other massive natural disasters, does not allow foreign journalists to enter this country.
In neighboring Thailand, the BBC Verify’s Nick Beake is creating a picture of the earthquake’s influence in the worst area we know.
