Myanmar's ruling military declared a temporary ceasefire in the country's civil war Wednesday to facilitate relief efforts following a 7.7 magnitude earthquake that has killed more than 3,000 people.

The quake had a preliminary magnitude of 2.8, the USGS said, and it hit about 2 miles west of Orinda, with a depth of about 4 miles. Multiple residents in Berkeley, Oakland and other East Bay cities reported feeling it, according to the USGS website.

A magnitude 3.0 earthquake jolted the East Bay on Tuesday afternoon, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The quake struck just before 5 p.m. about three miles west of Dublin, the USGS reported. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

Remarkable rescue stories from Myanmar's earthquake ruins are keeping hope alive, but aid agencies say time is running out fast, and the need for help is vast.
