01:00Some historical buildings have also been damaged in this earthquake.
01:04For example, this Ava Bridge, which has a history of nearly 100 years, was also damaged.
01:09Many bridges were broken and sank into the river.
01:12The Mandala Palace, which has a history of more than 100 years, was also shattered.
01:17It's a pity.
01:19According to local media reports,
01:21a Qingzhen Temple in Mandala also collapsed in the earthquake,
01:24causing at least 20 deaths.
01:26At the time of the earthquake, many people were praying in Qingzhen Temple,
01:29so many people were trapped in the ruins.
01:33Rescue workers are rescuing these casualties.
01:36The number of deaths is expected to rise.
01:39A large hospital in the capital of Burma, Nebido,
01:43has now become a large-scale death zone.
01:46A doctor said he had never seen so many injured people
01:49rush into the hospital at once.
01:51He felt very tired.
01:52Because too many injured people rushed in at the same time,
01:55some injured people could only lie on the ground and wait for treatment.
01:58In addition to Burma,
01:59Thailand, where few earthquakes have occurred,
02:01also rarely has a strong sense of shock.
02:03The situation at the time of the earthquake was also sent by netizens.
02:07In a new building in Bangkok,
02:09a skyscraper with a height of 30 floors suddenly collapsed during the earthquake.
02:13Until 7 p.m.,
02:14the authorities announced that at least three people died and 81 people were trapped.
02:18In addition, the pool of the top swimming pool of the first-tier skyscraper
02:22also erupted out of the building in a strong shock,
02:24like a big building waterfall.
02:26As the people filmed the earthquake,
02:28the BTS subway carriages parked at the station were shaking violently.
02:31The people on the platform were also nervous,
02:33holding hands, fearing that the war would not be stable.
02:38Due to the fact that there are very few earthquakes in Thailand,
02:42this time there was a strong sense of shock in Bangkok,
02:46so the local residents felt very shocked and uneasy.
02:50Thailand also announced that Bangkok was in an emergency state
02:52and ordered all schools in the country to close.
02:54The authorities also issued a national alert,
02:56notified the public through text messages and the media,
02:59and mobilized security forces.
03:00Airport, hospital, and traffic are in a state of emergency.
03:03The people are upset to avoid going to these taller buildings.
03:07Thai Prime Minister Phetthongthai, who was originally on Phuket Island,
03:09also terminated his itinerary
03:11and returned to the central government to hold an emergency meeting
03:13to discuss earthquake response measures.
03:15Phetthongthai told the public
03:17that this earthquake would not bring a tsunami,
03:19and added that all parks in Bangkok will be open all night
03:23for those who need to stay overnight.
03:27He also assured the public that the buildings in Bangkok are safe.
03:32The earthquake in Burma has had a very strong impact.
03:35China, Yunnan, Kunming, Zhaotong, Dali, and Xishuangbanna
03:38also have a clear sense of shock.
03:40Netizens have reported that houses have collapsed
03:42and people are terrified to flee the scene.
03:44At present, the incident has caused two people to be injured.
03:47In the case of China,
03:49many people in Penang felt the shaking
03:52and fled to the air.
03:54The Burmese Meteorological Bureau later issued a statement
03:56saying that due to the strong earthquake in Burma,
03:59several provinces on the island of Burma
04:01felt the vibration,
04:03but there was no threat of a tsunami.
