Authorities in Bangkok, Thailand, evacuated several skyscrapers on Monday in response to aftershocks potentially linked to a significant earthquake that struck Myanmar on Friday.

The earthquake, which measured 7.7 on the Richter scale, has resulted in substantial casualties, with over 1,700 reported fatalities and 3,400 injuries in Myanmar, according to local officials.

Residents in Bangkok have continued to experience tremors, although the United States Geological Survey has not recorded any new earthquakes in the region since the initial quake.

An employee in Bangkok's Sathorn area reported feeling the aftershocks, describing them as less intense than the earthquake that occurred on Friday.

Among the buildings evacuated were the One Bangkok shopping center, the Criminal Court building, and multiple government offices, all precautionary measures taken by the authorities to ensure public safety.
