Fresh tremors: Afghanistan struck by two more earthquakes; fifth in a week

Afghanistan faced two more earthquakes early Saturday. The magnitudes were around 4.0. This marks the fifth seismic event in the past week. Earlier, another quake measuring 4.6 shook the region. Afghanistan is prone to earthquakes due to its location. The country is at the convergence of tectonic plates. Natural disasters strain communities facing conflict and limited infrastructure.
