Nonetheless, a 63-year-old woman was found alive early Tuesday in the Myanmar capital, Naypyitaw, more than 90 hours after the quake. Dozens of monks are believed to be trapped under rubble after the quake sent monasteries in the Buddhist-majority country collapsing under their own weight.

Rescue efforts are also continuing in the Thai capital, Bangkok, where the quake sent high-rises swaying and collapsed a 30-story building under construction. At least 20 people died in Bangkok, most of them at the site of the collapsed building, where on Tuesday rescuers were using heavy machinery to move big slabs of cement as scores of workers remained trapped in the rubble.
