On the night of August 31, 2025, a powerful magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck eastern Afghanistan, shaking the provinces of Kunar and Nangarhar at 11:47 p.m. local time.

💔 The shallow depth of just 8 km intensified the devastation. Authorities report over 1,400 deaths and 3,000+ injuries in Kunar province alone, with the worst-hit districts being Nur Gul, Soki, Watpur, Manogi, and Chapa Dara.
