00:00Imagine surviving an earthquake, only to fear the mountain above your home might crush you next.
00:05In eastern Afghanistan, villages lie in ruins after twin earthquakes killed over 2,200 people.
00:11But even as aid trickles in, survivors like Adam Kahn refuse to return home.
00:16Their fear isn't just aftershocks, it's the massive boulders still clinging to shattered cliffs.
00:22One rainfall, they say, and rocks could come crashing down.
00:25With no tents, no shelter, and rain pouring down, families sleep on riverbanks and fields.
00:32Shamsa Rahman lost six loved ones.
00:34He walked barefoot beside his son, sharing his only pair of shoes.
00:38Now, nine of them huddle beside a dusty road, under a torn tent that doesn't even fit the kids.
00:44Children, like 12-year-old Sadiq, are still haunted.
00:47Trapped under rubble for 11 hours, he watched his grandmother and cousin die.
00:51It felt like doomsday, he whispered.
00:53For these survivors, returning home isn't an option.
00:57Not without safety, shelter, or support.
00:59They're not just rebuilding homes.
01:01They're fighting to rebuild hope.
