The internet is praising the nurses for their bravery in saving the newborns during this dire situation.  

The powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake in Myanmar on March 28 has reportedly claimed over 1,000 lives. The quake, which struck at 1:20 PM local time, caused widespread destruction, with strong tremors felt in Bangkok, China’s Ruili, and India’s northeast region. The tremors disrupted daily life, forcing people to evacuate buildings in panic.  

In Bangkok, a high-rise building under construction collapsed due to the quake. Emergency responders have confirmed at least two deaths, while dozens remain trapped under the rubble. The collapse sent a massive dust cloud into the air, and rescue operations are underway to locate the missing workers.
