At least 20 people were killed and over 530 were injured after a magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck northern Afghanistan near Mazar-e-Sharif early Monday. The death toll will likely increase as rescue and recovery efforts proceed. Most of the injuries occurred when people fell while trying to get out of the tall buildings. The power outage was not only in the whole country but in Kabul as well and the electricity lines connecting to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan were damaged.
