A powerful earthquake has hit Myanmar, with tremors causing destruction across the country and in neighboring Thailand.
A skyscraper under construction collapsed in the Thai capital, Bangkok, due to the quake on Friday, trapping 43 workers, the police and medics have said.
According to the US Geological Survey, a 7.7-magnitude quake struck northwest of the city of Sagaing in central Myanmar at a shallow depth of 10km. A 6.4-magnitude aftershock hit the same area shortly afterwards.
Witnesses in the city of Mandalay in Myanmar told Reuters that they have seen several buildings collapse because of the tremors.
An AFP journalist in Naypyidaw, located south of Sagaing, reported cracks appearing on the roads and chunks of ceilings falling from buildings.

Videos posed on social media have captured what is said to be damage delivered by the quake to Myanmar’s ancient royal capital, Mandalay.
In the Thai capital Bangkok, skyscrapers were shaken by the tremors, causing locals and tourists to rush outside in panic.
A 30-story building under construction collapsed in the capital’s Chatuchak Park area, with damage reported in other parts of the city.
Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has declared Bangkok “an emergency zone” and instructed the local authorities in other provinces to treat the earthquake as “a national emergency.”
Tremors were also felt in China’s southwest Yunnan province, according to the China Earthquake Administration (CEA).
