A very strong earthquake hit eastern Afghanistan on August 31, 2025. Officials say more than 800 people were killed and over 2,500 were hurt.
The earthquake was centered near the city of Jalalabad. It caused a lot of damage in the areas of Kunar and Nangarhar. Many villages were destroyed. Homes made of mud and stone fell down.
Local and international aid groups are now helping. The United Nations and other organizations are sending teams and supplies like medicine and food. But it is hard to reach some places because the area has many mountains and landslides.
Leaders from countries like India and Pakistan said they are sorry for the loss and offered to help. Afghanistan was already dealing with problems like dry weather and not enough aid. This earthquake makes the situation even harder for the people there.
