  • The UN says another cyclone is forming near Myanmar less than two weeks after it was devastated by a killer storm. Amanda Pitt, the spokeswoman of the United Nations humanitarian relief programme, couldn’t say where the landfall would be or when it would become a full-fledged cyclone. She told reporters on Wednesday that another cyclone was likely, saying, “This is terrible.” She said the information about the possible cyclone came from the Joint Typhoon Warning centre, which is part of the UN’s World Meteorological Centre. The May 2-3 cyclone that pulverised Myanmar’s Irrawaddy delta left more than 60,000 people dead or missing.
