The death toll from the powerful earthquake has now crossed 2,700, and thousands more are injured.
Senior General Min Aung Hlaing announced that 2,719 people have been confirmed dead, 4,521 wounded, and 441 are still missing.
These figures are expected to increase significantly as the quake affected a vast area and left many regions without power or cell service.
Roads and bridges were also damaged, hampering a full assessment of the destruction.
