The news headlines are starting to resemble a read through Revelation.
BANGKOK—(UPDATE) A magnitude-7.0 earthquake struck eastern Myanmar Thursday, the US Geological Survey reported.
The epicenter, in the hills of Myanmar close to the borders with Thailand and Laos, was only 10 kilometers (six miles) deep.
It was located 90 kilometers (56 miles) north of Chiang Rai in Thailand and 235 kilometers (146 miles) north-north-east of Chiang Mai, Thailand's second city and a popular tourist destination.
No tsunami warning was issued, with seismologists saying the quake was too far inland to generate a devastating wave in the Indian Ocean.
