How the scale of loss is more clear in a week on

More than 3,000 people were killed by the magnitude earthquake last week, said Myanmar’s military junta. Hundreds of more people are missing and the fee is expected to rise.

Rescuers still cannot reach parts of the country devastated by the earthquake.

As Nick Bake of the BBC explains, the BBC reports from Myanmar via Myanmar as the disaster struck, revealing widespread devastation.

Some survivors were removed from the ruins, but many others were not so lucky.
