Myanmar: A big aid operation, but much more is needed

June 10, 2008

On the second of May, Cyclone Nargis swept over large parts of Myanmar. The storm caused immediate destruction on a large scale. It also created a wall of water, that washed away people and property. In the Irriwaddy delta, many tens of thousands died. Many more were left homeless.
