Typhoon Yagi has forced over 235,000 people from their homes in Myanmar, highlighting the urgent need for foreign aid as the country grapples with severe flooding and destruction.
Min Aung Hlaing's appeal for foreign aid is significant, as the junta had previously blocked humanitarian assistance, showing a shift amid the disastrous impact of Typhoon Yagi.
The flooding caused by Typhoon Yagi has resulted in catastrophic damage, destroying infrastructure, homes, and exacerbating the humanitarian crisis already affecting over 2.7 million displaced people.
Myanmar's military government faces scrutiny for its previous reluctance to accept international aid, raising questions about whether this recent request signifies a mere shift in public relations.
