TL;DR Summary

Cyclone Mocha, one of the strongest storms to ever hit Myanmar, has devastated coastal areas in Rakhine state, with entire villages wiped out and piles of debris stretching over miles. More than 400 people are estimated to have died, and the true toll and extent of the destruction is hard to know due to flooding, blocked roads, and downed communications that have made access difficult. Aid agencies say they have finally begun reaching affected communities, a week after the cyclone hit and following claims Myanmar’s military junta had been impeding access.
