Afghanistan’s Crisis Deepens as Fatal Earthquake and Floods Strike


The week saw a humanitarian and natural disaster toll as floods claimed at least 77 lives and caused extensive destruction to thousands of homes, either damaged or destroyed.

An earthquake that struck on Friday added to the casualties, resulting in about a dozen deaths.

Officials and aid organizations are assessing the broader impact on affected regions and coordinating relief efforts to support those displaced and in need of shelter, food, and medical care.
