At least 60 people have been death in heavy snow and rain in Afghanistan for three consecutive weeks.
Since February 20, 60 people have lost their lives and 23 others have been injured in various accidents due to snow and rain.
Also, about 1,645 houses were completely or partially destroyed in the disaster. Besides, about 1 lakh 78 thousand cattle also died.
Foreign aid to Afghanistan has dropped dramatically since the fall of the US-backed government and the return of the Taliban. As a result, it will be very difficult for the Taliban government to deal with such a disaster.
In October last year, a terrible earthquake hit Afghanistan’s Herat province. That injury has yet to be overcome. Due to heavy rain since Monday evening, flash flood situation has arisen.
Earlier on Tuesday, five members of the same family were killed when the roof of a house collapsed in the provincial capital city of Herat.
About 250 houses were destroyed and a large part of agricultural land was flooded. Relief aid should start arriving from Thursday.
Since October 7, three terrible earthquakes have struck Afghanistan. As a result, about 1,500 people lost their lives and about 30,000 people were completely or partially destroyed.
