A 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck Afghanistan on Wednesday, 11 October, in an area where tremors killed over 2,400 people just days ago.
Details: According to the United States Geological Survey, the earthquake occurred at 5:10 AM local time, with its epicentre around 29 km north of Herat city.
Damage caused: Health officials said that over 100 people have been injured, but there are no reports of casualties so far, BBC reported.
The fresh tremors come even as rescue teams are engaged in operations to find survivors following Saturday's quake, which has affected at least 12,000 people, as per the United Nations.
Local and national officials have given conflicting accounts of the number of dead and injured from the previous earthquake, but the disaster ministry said that at least 2,445 people have died so far.
