They were digging through the rubble with their bare hands when they heard the voice of a girl.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It was faint but clear. \u201cHelp me, I\u2019m here,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It took them three or four hours to pull out the 12-year-old, who had survived despite the house toppling around her. But in the early hours of Sunday morning, there was only silence as the rescuers continued to work in nearly 100-degree heat. They eventually unearthed three bodies: the girl\u2019s mother and her grandparents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cSadly, I fear we will find more bodies than survivors,\u201d Mr. Myo Zaw said. \u201cThe heat in Mandalay is intense, causing rapid decomposition. In some cases, we locate the bodies only because of the smell.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Time is running short in Mandalay, Myanmar\u2019s second-largest city with about 1.5 million people, which is near the epicenter of Friday\u2019s devastating earthquake. In one neighborhood in Mandalay, countless buildings were reduced to rubble, satellite images showed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Across the country, over 1,600 people were confirmed dead, as of Saturday night, and over 3,000 injured in the worst earthquake to hit Myanmar in more than a century. Many fear that the number of people who can be rescued will dwindle after Monday evening, the crucial 72-hour mark after which experts say the chances of survival drop sharply.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Even as volunteer rescuers scoured the ruins of homes, monasteries and mosques, and hospitals overflowed with patients, aftershocks \u2014 including a strong one on Sunday \u2014 kept residents on edge. Several buildings in Mandalay that had survived Friday\u2019s powerful earthquake toppled on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">And the military made clear it would not stop a brutal bombing campaign in a civil war that has ravaged the country despite the urgent need for relief efforts, with reports of an airstrike on Sunday afternoon in Pakokku Township in Magway Region in the country\u2019s northwest that killed two women and injured seven others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">How the military government and its commander in chief, Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing, an already deeply unpopular leader who ousted a civilian government four years ago, responds in the coming days and weeks could determine the junta\u2019s hold on power. The military government has already lost ground to rebels in the civil war, which had left nearly 20 million of the country\u2019s roughly 54 million people in need of shelter and food even before the quake, according to U.N. officials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the early hours after the earthquake, a lack of machinery and personnel severely hampered rescue operations. But the arrival of Chinese rescue teams with heavy equipment on Saturday night has given volunteers a glimmer of hope.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On Sunday, volunteers rescued 29 people from a collapsed apartment building in Mandalay and recovered eight bodies, according to Soe Paing, a rescue worker from the Myanmar fire service department. He said the help from the Chinese had sped up the work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cRight now, we believe around 90 people are still trapped inside,\u201d he said, \u201cand we are doing everything we can to get them out alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Later in the day, an aftershock struck Mandalay, sending residents into the streets, screaming in fear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Many are confronting an uncertain future, rationing food, and wondering how they can get by without any power and scarce water. Volunteers asked for more body bags for the corpses that they are pulling out by the hour. Many have said that the army has done little to help.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Aid from other countries has also begun arriving, but questions remain about how the Myanmar army would distribute the much-needed relief. At least half a dozen nations, including India, Malaysia, Russia, Singapore and Thailand, have sent teams and supplies. Some of the aid, such as a group from Singapore as well as supplies from India, has gone to Naypyidaw, the capital, where the military\u2019s generals live and which was less affected than Mandalay.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThey have a long track record of using aid as a weapon,&#8221; said Scot Marciel, the U.S. ambassador to Myanmar from 2016 to 2020, said of the military government. \u201cI would think that they would try to use it to funnel aid to their supporters and prevent it from getting to people in the areas controlled by the resistance. I don\u2019t have faith in them that they would do the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Padoh Saw Taw Nee, the spokesman for the rebel Karen National Union, said the group welcomed the support of foreign countries but warned them to be \u201caware of the nature of the military in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He pointed out that the military had not refrained from attacks even after the earthquake, saying: \u201cThey might use the money for the war. We worry about this issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Control of Myanmar is now divided between the military regime, which governs the urban areas, and the ethnic armies, who hold the borderlands. Since the 2021 coup, Sagaing \u2014 another region that has been hit hard by the earthquake \u2014 has also emerged as a center of resistance and is home to a patchwork of rebel groups. (Internet access has been cut off in Sagaing, making it difficult to get reports from there.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">An hour after Friday\u2019s earthquake, a military paramotor, or motor-powered paraglider, dropped bombs in Chaung Oo village in Sagaing, said Phyu Win, a resident. \u201cPeople were already terrified from the quake, and with the chaos, it was impossible to take cover in bomb shelters,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The army\u2019s airplanes have continued to fly overhead since the earthquake. \u201cThe junta has no interest in helping people,\u201d Ms. Phyu Win said. \u201cThey only want to kill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At one point last year, the rebels had advanced close to Mandalay, which was seen by many to be a potential tipping point in the war.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-9\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Experts say the earthquake could change the trajectory of the civil war. The National Unity Government, the shadow government in exile, has called for a two-week pause in fighting, but it does not speak for the multiple rebel groups and ethnic armies fighting government forces. The powerful Arakan Army, which has won control of large parts of Rakhine State in Myanmar, could exploit this moment to wrest the south of the country away from the junta.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Much will also depend on how General Min Aung Hlaing and his military view this moment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cTheir backs are to the wall and they can\u2019t cope,\u201d Khin Zaw Win, a political analyst and director of the Tampadipa Institute, a research group in Yangon, said of the military rulers. \u201cWe have come to the point where the military will be forced to relent.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-10\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Richard Horsey, a senior adviser on Myanmar for the International Crisis Group, called the earthquake \u201ca moment of jeopardy for Min Aung Hlaing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt\u2019s really a critical moment for him, his legacy, but also his current regime,\u201d Mr. Horsey said. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t exactly know how this is going to play out \u2014 it\u2019s difficult to guess \u2014 but he knows that there will be huge political aftershocks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-798hid etfikam0\">Verena H\u00f6lzl<!-- --> contributed
