At least 1,000 people have been killed and almost 1,500 have been injured as a result of a strong earthquake that slammed a remote border region of Afghanistan early on Wednesday.
“Although search and rescue efforts are ongoing, heavy rain and wind is hampering efforts with helicopters reportedly unable to land this afternoon”, a spokesman for the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs told Reuters.
