An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.3 has struck the province of Herat in Afghanistan. Taliban officials are making visits to the impacted area that has recorded at least 2,000 deaths.
A senior Taliban delegation was visiting western Afghanistan’s Herat province on Monday in the aftermath of the powerful earthquake that killed at least 2,000 people over the weekend and flattened entire villages, a statement said. Saturday’s magnitude 6.3 quake hit a densely populated area in Herat and was followed by strong aftershocks in what was one of the deadliest temblors to strike the country in two decades.
The fast-approaching winter, combined with this new disaster, is likely to exacerbate the existing challenges and make it even more difficult for people to meet their basic needs, like adequate shelter, food, and medicine, it said. 'CARE is deeply saddened by the devastating earthquake that struck the western province of Herat,' said Reshma Azmi, the group's deputy director for Afghanistan.
