A magnitude 6.3 earthquake has struck Afghanistan, killing over 1,000 people.
With hundreds of shelters and critical infrastructure destroyed, thousands of people are contending with freezing conditions, lack of essential supplies and threats to their safety.
Our emergency team has been deployed to the area, including mobile health teams that are providing urgent medical care to the affected population.
