Main Earthquake deals further hit on a problem country

After a four -year civil war, a strong food crisis and the economy in decline, Myanmar is now being devastated by a powerful earthquake.

On Friday, an earthquake 7.7 scale came to the city of Saga in Central Myanmar, after which there were reports of destruction coming from the nearest Mandala – the second largest city in the country – as well as in the capital, Nay Pyi Taw, which is more than 150 miles (241 km).

Getting information from Myanmar is difficult. Mobile lines in the affected areas have been spotted since the earthquake struck, but tens of thousands of people also live without electricity and there is limited internet access. Foreign journalists are also rarely allowed to formally enter the lack of freedom of the press.

So, how did Myanmar get here?

The country has seen decades of unrest and military administration after its independence from Britain in 1948.

In 2011, it seemed Aung San Suu Kyi Won.

Democratic hopes were spoiled in 2021 when it and its government were overthrown by a coup led by General Ming Aun Hlaing.

He detained and accused Mrs. Suu Kyi and other members of her government, charged with broad voting, which was conducted months earlier when her National Democratic Party league won more than 80% of the ballot.

The coup has caused huge protests when thousands are bred on the streets daily, demanding the restoration of civilian government. Violence quickly grew between civilians and military personnel, with the army reacted by the tears and rubber bullets against the crowd.

Human rights groups believe that hundreds of people were killed and thousands were injured.

The fact that initially began as a civil disobedience soon turned into a broad uprising involving pro-democracy and ethnic rebel groups as a result caused a comprehensive civil war.

Four years of violent fighting continued between the military, on the one hand, and ethnic armies and groups of armed resistance on the other.

The military suffered huge losses and no longer control most of the country. The dissatisfaction with the overall Ming Aun Hlaing also rose among the ranks of the army as more and more soldiers.

The fighting has left millions of lives in constant fear and uncertainty – with little access to basic needs, including medical care and food, they say about rights.

According to the UN, more than 3.5 million people were moved by fighting, which also stated that this number would only grow as the conflict will continue.

Food security has reached an “unprecedented level”, says the world food program, adding that rapid inflation has made many food unavailable for many.

Earlier this week, the UN announced that from next month more than a million people in Myanmar will reduce the help of world deficiencies.

This happens a few months after over 200 people died in Wake up typhoon yagawhich caused strong floods and mud in Myanmar and left hundreds of thousands of hectares of destroyed cultures.

The earthquake on Friday will undoubtedly add 50 million people in the country.

He struck near the city of Sagain – the rebels’ stronghold. Just months ago, it was a place of heavy fighting between the rebels and the military, and local reports said the air strikes were launched, causing thousands to run away.

The second largest city, Mandala, also affected the earthquake and lives 1.5 million. In the Mandala region, intensive fighting between the troops and the army was seen.

A very slow limited flow of information leaving the country suggests that the hospital in the capital Naipid, where the military government is sitting, has turned into a “mass site for losses” – several visuals we can see by drawing a picture of destruction, showing hacked roads and destroyed buildings.

“Hundreds of affected people come … But there are also collapsed in the emergency building,” said security officers at AFP hospital.

Now the junta country has declared a state of emergency in several regions and expressed a rare request for international assistance.

But it is unclear how they will respond to the earthquake when they wage war under the guidance of a combat general.
