'I saw dozens of houses razed on my way to hospital.' Death toll in Pakistan earthquake climbs to 22
People gather near a damaged road after an earthquake of magnitude 5.8 in Mirpur, Pakistan-administered Kashmir, September 24, 2019.
The magnitude 5.8 quake struck 23 km north of Jhelum, roughly 120 km southeast of Pakistan's capital Islamabad, at a relatively shallow depth of 10 km, the United States Geological Survey reported. "We saw walls and the roof developing cracks and ceiling fans and other articles falling down, and we rushed out into an open field," he told Reuters by telephone. "I have never seen such a devastating earthquake in this area in my life."
