A flash flood in central Myanmar on Friday left dozens of people missing as homes along a river bank were swept away, government officials in the military-dominated country said.

'About 60 people are missing so far because of the flood' in Pakokku township, an official who did not want to be named told AFP.

'Some houses and a monastery along the river bank were swept away and a bridge was destroyed as the water rose up,' he said.

There were no confirmed reports of deaths, a second official said.
