Flash floods in northern Afghanistan’s Baghlan province, as reported by the BBC, have claimed over 60 lives and left more than 100 injured.
Heavy rainfall, unusual for this time of year, triggered the disaster, with more storms expected.
The aftermath reveals widespread devastation, with many missing and hundreds trapped in their homes.
Emergency efforts, including helicopter operations, are underway, but challenges persist due to the lack of resources.
This tragedy underscores the vulnerability of poorly built homes and the heightened risks posed by climate change in one of the world’s poorest nations.
