Over 200 people have died so far and more than 1,000 injured following the 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck major cities of Pakistan on Monday.
According to the Dawn, the earthquake caused many buildings to collapse, landslides and stampedes.
The death toll could climb in the coming days because communications are down in much of the remote mountainous region.
Forty minutes after the first earthquake, an aftershock of 4.8 magnitude was reported in the same area in Pakistan. Aftershocks are expected to continue in the affected areas.
