Brief about the earthquake in Awaran and Kech Districts

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck district Awaran and Kech in Balochistan on 24th September, 2013. It killed people, destroyed houses and cut communications with worst affected areas of Awaran and Kech. According to initial assessment report of NRSP team, 557 death cases of Awaran district and 44 death cases of Kech district reported and a large number of injured people also reported. Population about 123,209 in Awaran and 9224 in Kech districts affected. 90% houses of Awaran district except Tehsil Jahoo and 90% houses of union council Dandar in Kech District damaged completely and 10% damage partially. All infrastructures including schools, health facilities, mosques, Madrisah and roads also damaged completely. Water and sanitation systems also damaged completely. People are facing issue of acute shortage of food and drinking water especially children. Women are facing issue of shelters due to culturally Pardah and heat during the day. For health services, people need medical camps in remote areas of Awaran because health services are being provided only in Awaran town. Due to unavailability of doctors and health facilities in the remote areas, people are being shifted to Karachi for treatment on self-help basis.
