KABUL, Aug 30, (Xinhua): Heavy rains and flash floods have claimed five lives and injured eight others in the eastern Afghanistan Nangarhar province, reported the state-run Bakhtar news agency on Saturday.
Citing Mawalwi Sediqullah Qureshi, the provincial director for Information and Culture, the state-owned news agency added that the rainstorms, which triggered flooding in Rodat, Haska Mina and Chaparhar districts on Friday, have killed five people and injured eight others.
Thousands of acres of farmland, as well as parts of roads and several water canals, have also been destroyed due to flooding, the official news agency added, quoting the official. Previously, flash floods had also inflicted casualties and property damage in the eastern Logar and Parwan provinces a couple of weeks ago.
