Double Quake Devastation: Afghanistan Hit by Second Deadly Earthquake
A 6.3 magnitude earthquake has struck western Afghanistan, just days after two large quakes in the same region killed over 1,000 people. More than 100 people were injured and sent to the hospital, while many were left homeless and sleeping in the open. Aid agencies have reported a shortage of blankets, food, and other supplies. Afghanistan is prone to earthquakes due to its location near the junction of the Eurasian and Indian tectonic plates.
