A pair of massive earthquakes struck recently, resulting in at least 68 deaths. 4, were followed by over a thousand aftershocks, causing widespread fear and displacement. Thousands of buildings were destroyed, along with power lines, making rescue efforts challenging, especially in remote villages.

Many people slept outside, fearing they would be buried in rubble. Some villages were cut off from aid for two days after the quake. A dangerous overland journey was required to reach one village, which was accessible only by landslide-prone roads.

Further details on the disaster and relief efforts are available from the source, including the work of organizations like A3, which is helping displaced survivors.
