Myanmar cyclone leaves thousands dead: report
Reports indicated that thousands were killed during the cyclone that hit Myanmar (formerly known as Burma).
Here’s an excerpt from the report from Agence France Presse:
YANGON — More than 22,000 people were killed in Myanmar’s devastating cyclone, the government said Tuesday, with thousands more feared dead after the storm left rice fields littered with corpses.
Tens of thousands are still missing four days after the storm slammed into the southern coast, the government said late Tuesday as it announced the sharply increased death toll on state television.
