Undercover in Myanmar: BBC finds earthquake chaos and trauma in secretive military regime | BBC News
A BBC undercover team has witnessed the horrific trauma left by Myanmar’s earthquake after entering the country and reaching the city of Mandalay which was hit hardest by the disaster.
As Yogita Limaye and her team drove into the city the massive scale of the destruction revealed itself bit by bit. In almost every street they found buildings had completely collapsed, reduced to piles of rubble. At the main city hospital patients are being treated outdoors.
Myanmar’s military government has said it’s not allowing foreign journalists into the country after the quake, so the BBC team went in without permission. They had to operate carefully because the country has many informers and secret police who spy on their own people on behalf of the ruling military regime.
The BBC team witnessed terrible trauma and suffering with little help for people facing the massive disaster.
Anna Foster presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Yogita Limaye.

Andy Burnham has reacted to Keir Starmer’s resignation, and confirmed that he will try to replace him as Labour leader and prime minister.
“His decision marks the beginning of a transition and it is important that this process is conducted in an orderly and responsible way. I will put myself forward as part of this process”, Burnham said on social media.
While Starmer had been vowing to fight any leadership challenge, the tone shifted after Andy Burnham beat Reform UK in the Makerfield by-election on Thursday, and he announced his resignation on Monday morning.
Former Health Secretary Wes Streeting has said he will back Burnham’s bid.

Direct talks between the US and Iran are set to begin in Switzerland despite the Iranian military saying it has closed the Strait of Hormuz again over Israel’s attacks on southern Lebanon.
Iran also cited a breach of its agreement with the US to end the war as a reason for the closure.
However, the US military has said “traffic continues to flow” in the strait.
