BREAKING: 5.9 Magnitude Earthquake STRIKES Myanmar; STRONG TREMORS Felt in Kolkata and Dhaka

A powerful 5.9-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar about 70 miles east of Akyab, sending strong tremors across borders into Kolkata and Dhaka and triggering panic on the streets. Buildings swayed for several seconds in eastern India and Bangladesh as residents rushed out of homes. The German GFZ reported the quake occurred at a shallow depth of 10 kilometers, which amplified surface shaking.

The European EMSC confirmed this was the third felt earthquake in Myanmar within 71 hours, while Bangladesh experienced a separate 4.1 jolt earlier the same day. Authorities from India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar said there were no immediate reports of casualties or major structural damage, though assessments are continuing across the affected region.
