Rescue volunteers who were forced to dig through the rubble with their bare hands have run out of body bags for those they couldn't save.

Crematoriums close to Mandalay have been overwhelmed, while authorities have been running out of body bags, among other supplies, including food and drinking water.

We all saw the images of body bags stored in refrigerated trucks, and if we were in New York or another major city, we might viscerally remember the sirens.

In cities, medical personnel ran low on cooling supplies, so they resorted to filling body bags meant for cadavers with ice, then zipping unconscious victims of heatstroke inside.

The bones and scraps of clothing are placed in white body bags upon which Mr Homs writes the Arabic word "majhoul".
