China's Yunnan feels Myanmar's 7.7 earthquake, no casualties reported

Firefighters in China's southern Yunnan province have responded to tremors from a magnitude 7.7 earthquake that struck neighbouring Myanmar on Friday.

The quake's impact was felt in countries bordering Myanmar, including Thailand.

Local authorities report that transportation, power supply, and communication services continue to function normally in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture, Lincang City, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture and Baoshan City.

Despite the strong tremors, no casualties or major damage has been reported in Yunnan.

Traffic, power supply, and communication networks remain unaffected. Authorities continue monitoring the situation as further aftershocks are possible.
