Support the Afghanistan Earthquake Survivors Today.

On the early morning of 3 November 2025, a powerful earthquake of magnitude 6.3 struck northern Afghanistan. The epicentre was located near Khulm, in Balkh Province, at a depth of approximately 28 km.

A powerful earthquake has devastated northern Afghanistan, leaving entire communities in ruins. At least 20 people have lost their lives and hundreds more are injured. Thousands of families are now displaced, their homes reduced to rubble, and the historic Blue Mosque in Mazar-i-Sharif has suffered severe damage. As winter approaches, survivors face freezing temperatures without adequate shelter, food, or medical care. Many hospitals and clinics have been damaged, making it difficult to treat the growing number of casualties.

The situation remains critical. Children, the elderly, and displaced families are especially vulnerable to the harsh winter cold, hunger, and illness. Without urgent support, the risk of further suffering continues to rise. Rebuilding will take time, as many affected communities were already living in fragile conditions. ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ teams are on the ground delivering life-saving aid to help families endure this crisis and begin the long journey toward recovery.

Combating Food Insecurity: ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµâ€™ Tandoor Bakery

In Afghanistan, one third of the population, 15.3 million people do not have enough food to eat. This situation is heartbreaking and is exactly why our humanitarian work on the ground is essential.  Just before Ramadan 2022, ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ opened our very first Tandoor bakery in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Since its launch we have been distributing hundreds of fresh naans to vulnerable people every day. The naans produced by the Tandoor bakery are a lifeline for so many. In a country where 29.2 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance, this project has started a positive chapter in their stories.
