As a result of being compelled to live in caves during Afghanistan’s recent cold snap, those who were affected by earthquakes in the Paktika area of Afghanistan have already been suffering a miserable existence.
Many of these families who were surviving the cold in the Paktia province were previously murdered by earthquakes; now the cold is affecting them. Right now, the cold is causing issues for many families.
Over 7,800 dwellings, including 6,000 in the Gayan district, were completely destroyed by the earthquake that devastated Paktika and Khost provinces this summer, according to government statistics.
Earlier, a 4.0-magnitude earthquake occurred this morning in Ukhrul, Manipur.
