One killed as Thailand experiences shocks of magnitude-7 quake that hit Burma
Chiang Mai and some parts of Bangkok experienced tremors last night following a 7.0 magnitude earthquake that struck eastern Burma.
The epicentre of the quake, in the hills of Burma bordering Thailand and Laos, was 89km from Thailand’s northern province of Chiang Rai, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS).
One death was reported in Chiang Rai but there were no reports of other casualties or property damage, both in Thailand and elsewhere.
