Taliban appeals for international support after Afghanistan earthquake – BBC News

BBC, 23 Jun 2022
The Taliban authorities have called for more international aid after the deadliest earthquake to strike Afghanistan in two decades.

The earthquake struck early on Wednesday about 44km (27 miles) from the city of Khost and tremors were felt as far away as Pakistan and India.

Afghanistan's health system was facing near collapse even before the disaster.
