Note: As seismologists review available data, they may revise the earthquake’s reported magnitude. Additional information collected about the earthquake may also prompt U.S.G.S. scientists to update the shake-severity map.

The powerful earthquake, which had its epicenter in central Myanmar about 13 miles from Mandalay, Myanmar’s second-largest city, struck around 12:50 p.m. local time, the New York Times reported. It was followed by several tremors, including a 6.4 magnitude aftershock which occurred just 11 minutes later.

Rescue workers pulled more bodies from the rubble in Myanmar today after a powerful earthquake hit yesterday. The magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck at midday with the epicenter not far from the city of Mandalay.
