The death toll is rising very fast. The countryside of Myanmar is in total devastation. Thailand, China, India and Indonesia were flying in relief supplies and the US President and Australian Prime Minister appealed to the Myanmar government to accept their assistance. France called for the UN Security Council to get involved.

More than 100,000 people may have been killed in the cyclone in Myanmar, a US diplomat said on Wednesday, citing information diplomats were receiving from the devastated Irrawaddy delta region of the Southeast Asian country. "The information that we''re receiving indicates that there may well be over 100,000 deaths in the delta area," said Shari Villarosa, the charge d''affaires of the US embassy in Myanmar. She spoke with reporters by conference call from the capital Yangon.
