A devastating earthquake has struck Eastern Afghanistan.

A powerful 6.0-magnitude earthquake has struck eastern Afghanistan, causing significant devastation in Nangarhar and Kunar provinces. Entire villages have been flattened. Homes made of mud and stone have crumbled.

More than 800 people have died, over 2,000 are injured, and thousands more have been displaced.

Roads are blocked by landslides, rescue efforts are overwhelmed, and aftershocks continue to shake the region — making recovery nearly impossible without immediate aid.

This tragedy comes at a time when Afghans are already struggling with poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to healthcare. With winter approaching, families who have lost everything face even greater danger in the coming weeks.

The Need for Aid

Thousands of families have been impacted, with entire communities in eastern Afghanistan left without basic necessities.

Homes have been reduced to rubble, roads cut off by landslides, and access to essentials like food, clean water, and healthcare remains severely limited.

Women-headed households, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities are among the most vulnerable — facing heightened risks in the aftermath of the earthquake.

The most urgent needs on the ground include:

  • Food packages for families in the worst-hit areas

  • Medical supplies for the injured and those with chronic conditions

  • Tents and other blankets for displaced households

  • Hygiene kits to prevent disease and promote dignity in crisis
