RASC News Agency: The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has officially announced its commitment to provide a humanitarian donation of $12 million towards the relief efforts for the individuals affected by the devastating earthquake in Herat province. This announcement, made on Thursday, October 12, aligns with the urgent plea from various aid organizations to increase immediate assistance to those impacted by the earthquake.
In response to this plea, foreign organizations such as the International Organization for Migration have been tasked with distributing the aid. The assistance includes provisions for temporary shelter, blankets, clothing, food, and other essential items, as reported by the Reuters news agency.

It is important to note that the United States’ aid initiative coincides with the prior appeals made by international charitable organizations to secure urgent financial resources for addressing the needs of the individuals affected by the two earthquakes in western Afghanistan. In solidarity with this cause, several nations across the globe have also pledged to provide humanitarian assistance to the victims in Herat province.
The recent earthquake in Herat province has caused immense devastation, resulting in the loss of thousands of lives, injuring thousands more, and leading to the displacement and disappearance of numerous individuals. In light of these dire circumstances, the United Nations has called for increased assistance to be given to those affected.

Adding to the fear and anxiety among the local population, successive and deadly earthquakes struck Herat province on Saturday, further compounding the impact of the disaster. Post-earthquake predictions have heightened concerns, emphasizing the urgent need for aid and support.
Moreover, the earthquake has inflicted significant human and economic losses on the residents of Herat province. Reports indicate that the disaster has not only caused casualties but has also damaged several historical reservoirs.
In the face of this tragedy, it is imperative that the international community unites and works together to provide swift and substantial aid to the affected individuals and communities. By doing so, we can help alleviate their suffering, facilitate recovery, and restore stability in the region.
