ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Flooding has left more than 150 dead and 200 others injured in recent days in Afghanistan, battering a country already torn asunder by violence and the coronavirus.⁣ ⁣ Flash floods devastated Charikar, a city carved along the foothills of the Hindu Kush in northern Afghanistan, on Wednesday. Floods in northern and eastern Afghanistan are common this time of year. But the destruction in Charikar, where side streets were transformed into pressurized tributaries that tore through much of the city of 200,000 people, is striking. The floods’ toll, local officials say, is likely to rise as more bodies are discovered.⁣ ⁣ Flooding has been reported across a dozen provinces in the last several days but Parwan Province, of which Charikar is the capital, was the most severely hit.⁣ ⁣ “The flood has taken everything I owned and where I belonged,” said Hamid Agha, who lives in Charikar. ⁣ ⁣ “I was the only child of my family, so I always wanted to have a big family,” he added. “But now I lost everyone. Only my two sons remain.”⁣ ⁣ Tap the link in our bio for the latest from Afghanistan. Photos by @jimhuylebroek.⁣」8月28日 8時24分
