YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — Myanmar’s junta warned Thursday it will punish anyone found hoarding or trading foreign aid meant for cyclone survivors, but relief groups said they had seen no evidence of people selling or stockpiling donated goods.

The government’s warning came as the official death toll from Cyclone Nargis was raised to 43,318, an increase of almost 5,000 from a day earlier, but still far below U.N. and Red Cross estimates. The number of people listed as missing remained at 27,838.

Myanmar’s military, which has ruled for 46 years, has itself come under suspicion of diverting relief supplies. Its warning against hoarding alluded to the allegations, saying the regime is rushing all donated supplies to those in need.

Tons of food, water, blankets, mosquito nets, medicine and tents have been flown in to Myanmar from international donors, but delivery to the 1.5 million to 2 million affected by the May 3 storm has been slowed by bottlenecks, poor infrastructure and bureaucratic tangles.

In its latest estimate, the U.N. World Food Program said that it will have to rush in 390 tons of food every day to reach 750,000 victims it is targeting over the next month. But it said less than 300 tons have been distributed since the cyclone hit.

The U.N. Children’s Fund said Friday that up to 1 million children were in need of urgent assistance.
