THE Myanmar Red Cross Society (MRCS) headquarters stated that systematic assessment and analysis work is underway to continuously provide assistance for the earthquake-affected Mandalay Region, along with support from domestic and foreign donors.
The assessments were conducted between 10 and 17 July, during which MRCS officials visited households affected by the Mandalay earthquake in Amarapura Township and systematically surveyed.
Staff from the MRCS’s Disaster Management Department, along with local Red Cross volunteers and members from Mon State and Ayeyawady Region Red Cross brigades, also took part in the effort.
Similarly, to continue providing assistance to those affected by natural disasters, the MRCS — supported by both domestic and international donors — visited households in Htantabin and Ottwin townships of Bago Region that experienced flooding in 2024, as well as households in Kyaukdaga Township that were impacted by a severe earthquake in March 2025. These visits and assessments were conducted last June, and the MRCS will continue to provide systematic assistance. — ASH/TH
