Myanmar Quake Now a 6.8 With a Dozen Dead

Myanmar's deadly 6.6 quake, from Sunday morning, has been upgraded to a 6.8.

Aftershocks as high as 5.8 have followed.

During the shaking bridges fell, mines collapsed, roads split, and homes crashed down.

At least a dozen people have been killed in the quake, with more than a hundred injured, and others missing.

The national government is reporting different figures than local sources are, making real numbers hard to come by.
