Afghanistan's Ongoing Earthquake Crisis: Devastation and Desperation
Afghanistan's western province of Herat has been hit by another earthquake, measuring 6.3 magnitude, just days after a series of tremors caused significant damage in the same region. There have been no official reports on casualties or damage from this latest quake. The previous earthquake on October 7 was one of the most destructive in Afghanistan's recent history, with mud-brick homes, schools, and hospitals being flattened. Relief operations are still ongoing, and survivors are now faced with the additional challenge of recovering from this latest disaster.
