Deadly earthquake strikes Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India.
A 6.5 magnitude earthquake hit Pakistan and Afghanistan, killing at least 12 people and injuring over 40. The quake damaged buildings, triggered landslides, and was felt over a 1,000-km area. The remoteness of the affected area is likely to slow relief and rescue work. Earthquakes are common in the region due to the juncture of the Eurasian and Indian tectonic plates.
