Zaher walks calmly across what used to be his village, now reduced to piles of rubble. Standing on top of a mound of sand, he locates his home – or rather, what little is left of it.
“We used to live here and now you can see what state it has reached,” he said, his voice shaking. “Obviously our current situation is visible.” He reveals that the deadly earthquake which struck Afghanistan on October 7 had taken more than his family home away from him. “Thirteen people in my family died,” he said.
Teams on the ground have also highlighted difficulties in reaching survivors trapped in remote villages. “We are powerless… displaced and homeless,” said Zaher. “I have not received any help until now except for water bottle. How can we survive sitting and sleeping on these stones and hard ground?” “We need the help of the government and the international community – this is our only message, as you can see, we are left with nothing.
