Rescue efforts continue in the Thai capital, Bangkok after a powerful earthquake in neighbouring Myanmar caused a high-rise under construction to collapse.
Dust and debris fill the air as families anxiously await news of missing loved ones.
At least 18 people have been confirmed dead in Thailand.
The 30-storey government building crumbled within minutes, trapping workers inside.
Unstable rubble complicates rescue operations. Survivors recall fleeing as the structure collapsed, while others remain unaccounted for. Many hold onto hope as search teams work tirelessly. The disaster has left grief and uncertainty across the city.
Al Jazeera’s Jessica Washington reports from Bangkok, where people are waiting for news about their missing relatives.
