Millions in Myanmar are still reeling from the aftermath of one of the strongest earthquakes in a century, as aid agencies navigate complex challenges to reach those in urgent need of assistance.
Efforts to deliver humanitarian assistance in Myanmar continue following a powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck the country on March 28, affecting millions and causing widespread damage.
