In a moment of hope amid tragedy, rescue teams in Myanmar pulled a woman alive from the ruins of a collapsed apartment building in Mandalay… more than 24 hours after she was buried under the wreckage.
The dramatic rescue unfolded as emergency responders worked tirelessly to free 30-year-old Phyu Lay Khaing, carefully navigating the debris for several hours. When she was finally pulled to safety, cheers erupted from onlookers, capturing a rare moment of relief in the midst of overwhelming devastation.
Overcome with emotion, Phyu Lay Khaing embraced her husband before being swiftly taken to a hospital for medical evaluation.
This incredible survival story comes in the wake of a catastrophic 7.7-magnitude earthquake that struck Myanmar on Friday, leaving more than 1,600 people dead and thousands injured. The powerful quake also caused widespread destruction in neighboring countries, adding to the region’s humanitarian crisis.
Rescue efforts continue as authorities race against time to save as many lives as possible, bringing hope to families still searching for their loved ones.
