FIVE Devastating Earthquakes Kill Thousands in Afghanistan
Powerful Earthquake and Aftershocks Kill Dozens and Injure Many More in Western Afghanistan
A Powerful Magnitude-6.3 Earthquake Followed by Strong Aftershocks Killed Dozens of People in Afghanistan on Saturday BBC 9 OCT 2023 Race to rescue victims in Herat Province More than 1,000 people are feared dead after the 6.3-magnitude quake hit villages in Herat Province on Saturday. With communications down and many roads blocked, rescue workers are struggling to reach remote areas. Hundreds have also been injured. The UN and other organisations have begun to rush in emergency supplies. The earthquake struck about 40km (25 miles) north-west of the city of Herat at around 11:00 local time (06:30 GMT) on Saturday. The worst-affected communities consist of mud structures. "In the very first shake all the houses collapsed," Herat resident Bashir Ahmad, whose family lives in one of the villages, told AFP news agency. "Those who were inside the houses were buried," he added. "There are families we have heard no news from." The World Health Organization (WHO) said at least 465 houses had been flattened.

FIVE Devastating Earthquakes Hit Afghanistan
Herat has not seen an earthquake for almost 1000 years but now, five have come at once. What factors lead to the disaster? BBC 16 OCT 2023 Afghanistan: Hundreds dead and homes flattened in earthquakes Large earthquakes hit western Afghanistan days apart, killing more than 3000 people. The United Nations called it a "disaster on top of a disaster" in a nation still reeling from decades of war. Quakes struck close to the capital of Herat province, a barren landscape dotted with mud brick homes. Photographer Nava Jamshidi found whole villages flattened in some areas - survivors are mourning relatives and friends and many have lost homes and livestock.
