Earthquake in Pakistan and Afghanistan leaves several dead - BBC News

At least 13 people have been killed and more than 200 injured after a powerful earthquake shook large parts of Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The 6.5-magnitude quake damaged buildings, triggered landslides and sent people running into the streets.

It struck on Tuesday evening, centred in a mountainous region in Afghanistan's north-east near the border with Pakistan.

Tremors from the remote Jurm valley were felt as far as India.
