A strong earthquake felt across thousands of kilometres in Afghanistan and Pakistan killed at least 12 people, but the region appeared to have avoided the mass casualties usually associated with such tremors on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The magnitude 6.5 quake was centred near Jurm in northeastern Afghanistan, according to the US Geological Survey, but the depth of 187 kilometres (116 miles) mitigated extensive damage.<\/p>\n

The quake, which struck around 09:30 p.m. Kabul time on Tuesday and lasted more than 30 seconds, was felt from Central Asia to New Delhi, India \u2014 a distance of over 2,000 kilometres.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a powerful earthquake and we feared maximum damage due to the intensity \u2014 that\u2019s why we issued an alert,\u201d Bilal Faizi, a spokesman for Pakistan\u2019s emergency Rescue 1122 service in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, told AFP.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut fortunately our fears proved wrong. Residents panicked due to the magnitude of the earthquake, but the damage was minimal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The region is frequently hit by quakes \u2014 especially in the Hindu Kush mountain range, which lies near the junction of the Eurasian and Indian tectonic plates.<\/p>\n

In Jurm district, near the epicentre, a resident of one village reported no casualties despite the location.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are about 2,000 to 3,000 people in our village and we all spent<\/a> the night outside under the sky,\u201d said Inamullah, reached by phone.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were all scared and stayed awake the entire night.\u201d<\/p>\n

Panicked residents of cities and towns in Afghanistan and Pakistan also fled their homes to seek safety away from buildings \u2014 with many too scared to return.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe stayed the night in our courtyard\u2026 it was cold outside, but we preferred to stay out rather than go back,\u201d 24-year-old student Neda Raihan told AFP in Kabul.<\/p>\n

Khudadad Heights, a vast multi-storey residential block in the Pakistan capital, was evacuated after huge cracks appeared in the building.<\/p>\n

Over 55,000 people were killed by an earthquake that struck southeastern Turkey and parts of Syria last month, heightening fears across the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe children started shouting that there is an earthquake. We all ran out. The horrors of the earthquake in Turkey and neighbouring countries had a strong effect on our nerves,\u201d said Ikhlaq Kazmi, a retired professor in the Pakistani city of Rawalpindi.<\/p>\n

Officials in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, north of the Pakistan capital, said nine people had been killed in the quake, including two women and two children.<\/p>\n

In Afghanistan, officials reported three dead and 44 injured \u2014 but phone and internet links to remote parts of the country had been severed and communication patchy.<\/p>\n

Government spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said health centres across the country had been put on high alert.<\/p>\n

In the Afghan capital Kabul, shopkeeper Noor Mohammad Hanifi set up tents in the street for his family to spend the night in.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody dares to go inside their homes,\u201d Hanifi told AFP as his family, cloaked in blankets, took shelter.<\/p>\n

In Afghanistan, many families were out of their homes celebrating Nowruz, the Persian New Year, when the quake struck.<\/p>\n

\u201cI heard people screaming and yelling as they came out in the streets,\u201d said Masieh, who was outside with his family when the tremor hit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s possible that there could be another tremor so I\u2019m still waiting outside.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those indoors also quickly left their houses and apartments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey just fled without wearing shoes, just carrying their children in their hands,\u201d an AFP correspondent said.<\/p>\n

Pakistan\u2019s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif ordered the National Disaster Management Authority to be ready to deal with any emergency.<\/p>\n

Last June more than 1,000 people were killed and tens of thousands made homeless after a 5.9-magnitude quake \u2014 the deadliest in Afghanistan in nearly a quarter of a century \u2014 struck the impoverished province of Paktika.<\/p>\n

Afghanistan is in the grips of a humanitarian disaster made worse by the Taliban takeover of the country in August 2021.<\/p>\n

International development funding on which the South Asian country relied dried up after the takeover and assets held abroad were frozen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
