Pakistan earthquake affects 108,000 people, half of whom are children,
With temperatures dropping, N.C.H.H.I.P is concerned about the urgent
needs of children and women, In Balochistan province, Pakistan, quake
leaves children vulnerable, Survivors sit near their collapsed house
in Ziarat after a powerful earthquake hit the south-western Pakistani
province of Balochistan on 29 October, flattening mud-walled homes and
triggering landslides., By N.C.H.H.I.P ( NEW CREATIVE HELPING HAND IN
PAKISTAN DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATION), BALOCHISTAN, Pakistan, 30 October
2008 – The death toll from a 6.4-magnitude earthquake that struck the
south-western province of Balochistan, Pakistan, yesterday has risen
to at least 700, The toll is expected to rise even further as bodies
are found under the remains of mud houses that have been reduced to
rubble. More than 15,000 mud-walled and timber homes reportedly have
been severely damaged or destroyed., The quake left between 10,000 and
15,000 people homeless when it struck the remote area early Wednesday
morning – and there seems to be no respite from more tragedy., "There
have been many aftershocks following the initial earthquake, and this
stops our teams reaching the affected areas," said New Creative
Helping Hand In Pakistan Development Organization Chief of External
Relations, Jamil Bhatti, in Islamabad., Relief for the most
vulnerable, Some 128 schools were partially damaged in the earthquake,
many roads are impassable, health care centres have been destroyed,
and food and water supplies are at risk. As always in such
emergencies, women and children remain the most vulnerable., The onset
of the winter represents another hurdle for relief efforts. As
temperatures drop, particularly at night, many homeless families are
left out in temperatures that are already close to the freezing
point., Balochistan, located near the Afghan border, is the largest
province in Pakistan but one of its least populated. A 7.5-magnitude
quake in the provincial capital, Quetta, killed an estimated 30,000
people in 1935. More recently, in October 2005, a quake in northern
Pakistan killed 70,000 people and left more than 3 million homeless.,
Death Toll Rises from Pakistan Quake, Pakistani rescuers pulled 160
bodies from the rubble of hundreds of mud-walled homes in the
southwestern province of Baluchistan on Wednesday after a powerful
earthquake struck, government officials said. New Creative Helping
Hand In Pakistan is rushing medical aid and emergency supplies to
isolated villages affected by yesterday's 6.4-magnitude earthquake in
western Pakistan, which killed at least 700 people and destroyed about
1,500 homes in the remote province of Balochistan., Your Support Will
Send Critical Aid, Balochistan early on the morning of October 29,
triggering landslides that instantly buried hundreds of homes. The
initial earthquake has been followed by at least 20 aftershocks — some
as large as 6.2 on the Richter scale — causing even more damage.,
Survivors Struggle in Frigid Temperatures, Temperatures are very low
in the region — and even more extreme temperatures are expected as
winter approaches — so the primary material needs reported are
blankets, warm clothes and sturdy tents.
New Creative Helping Hand In Pakistan will continue and expand
emergency assistance while further assessing the population's needs.
Additional medical and emergency support staff is on its way to the
affected area to strengthen the operation., Your support is critical
as we focus our efforts in some of Pakistan's poorest and most
isolated areas. My dear friend with the help of you people i hope and
i wish we can save few more lifes of the earth quake effecties.
