Afghanistan faces another devastating earthquake, with residents fleeing into the streets as their homes threaten to collapse. The Taliban government struggles with yet another natural disaster, while foreign aid has dramatically dropped since 2021. Poor infrastructure and communication networks continue hampering disaster response in this war-torn nation already suffering from humanitarian crises.
Emergency response teams mobilized immediately after the earthquake, while military rescue operations were launched quickly to save lives and assist affected families. Health teams arrived promptly in affected areas, and all nearby hospitals were placed on standby. Rescue efforts continue, with teams working to pull survivors from the rubble and transport the injured to medical facilities.
