A powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit Mandalay, Myanmar at 6:21 AM GMT, triggering widespread destruction! The quake occurred along the Sagaing Fault, a major tectonic boundary between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. According to USGS, this was caused by strike-slip faulting, where tectonic plates grind sideways against each other.
The impact? Buildings collapsed, roads buckled, and infrastructure suffered massive damage across affected regions. Myanmar, being one of the most seismically active areas in Southeast Asia, faces continuous stress due to the Indian Plate’s movement.
