Key roads connecting Myanmar's capital Nay Pyi Taw and Mandalay, its second-largest city, suffered severe damage following Friday's devastating earthquake. Video footage from China Radio International (CRI) on Sunday morning reveals extensive road cracks, with drivers carefully navigating around rubble and debris. Reporting from Nay Pyi Taw, CRI journalist noted extensive infrastructure damage caused by the powerful earthquake, with many residents opting to sleep outdoors overnight, fearing aftershocks could further damage buildings. Additionally, the earthquake devastated a local market in the capital city, forcing nearly all shops to close, leaving residents in despair and uncertain about their next steps.
