Hunderte Tote nach Afghanistan Erdbeben

June 22, 2022 - Ein Erdbeben der Stärke 5,9 führte zum Tod von über 900 Menschen und hunderten weiteren Verletzten in Afghanistan. Der Großteil der bestätigten Toten befindet sich in der südöstlichen Provinz Paktika.

Wednesday's quake was the deadliest since 2002. It struck about 44km from the southeastern city of Khost, near the border with Pakistan, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

The toll is expected to grow as information trickles in from remote mountain villages, Reuters said.
