At least 20 people were killed in a powerful earthquake in Myanmar, three died in Thailand. In total, more than 200 victims with injuries of varying severity. In the Myanmar city of Mandalay, an ancient temple built in the mid-19th century was destroyed. In the Thai capital Bangkok, a 30-story building under construction collapsed, more than 40 workers were trapped under the rubble, and a rescue operation is underway to free them.
Russians who survived the earthquake will tell you on our live broadcast how they managed to escape. We will also talk with the President of the Asian Seismological Commission Ruben Tatevosyan about how often this happens in Asian countries, and whether it is worth giving up traveling there in the near future.
