"Our house in the valley was destroyed. My uncle and his son have died," said 11-year-old Abedullah, who lives in Kunar, the province worst-hit by the 6.0-magnitude earthquake that rocked eastern Afghanistan on 1 September.

People from villages in Kunar shared with World Vision how they have been affected by the earthquake, which killed at least 1,172 children and orphaned 271 children.
