A powerful magnitude-6.3 earthquake followed by strong aftershocks hit western Afghanistan on Saturday. CMG visited the epicenter of the earthquake around 40 kilometers northwest of Herat and captured exclusive footage. 

The death toll from earthquakes in western Afghanistan's Herat and neighboring provinces has risen to 2,445, authorities said on Sunday. The most affected area is the Zanda Jan district in Herat, where 13 villages have been "utterly destroyed," said Mawlawi Musa Ashari, Herat's provincial director for the National Disaster Management Authority. 

Earlier, Mullah Janan Shaeq, spokesperson for the National Disaster Management Authority, said over 9,200 people had been injured in the quakes.
