【大紀元2017年02月06日訊】阿富汗各地連續三天降下大雪,引發一連串的雪崩,至當地時間2月5日晚上已經導致逾百人死亡,其中東部一個遭雪崩的村莊就有50人遇難。阿富汗當局預計,死亡人數可能會進一步攀升。

中央社報導,阿富汗各地連日遭遇大雪、極寒天氣,造成中部和東北部多個省份發生多起雪崩事件,摧毀數十戶民宅,並造成道路阻塞,致使救難人員難以抵達受災嚴重的村落。

阿富汗天然災害部發言人穆哈瑪迪(Mohammad Omar Mohammadi)2月5日對法新社表示:死者多數位於僻遠的紐裡斯坦省(Nuristan),有2座村莊遭滅村,其中1座有至少50人喪命。

除了上述村莊,分布在中部和北部省份的其它地區也發生了多起雪崩,加上極寒天氣,造成另外的54人喪生,另有數十人受傷。

穆哈瑪迪還表示,已知有168棟民房被毀,還有數百頭牲畜死亡。

當局擔心死亡人數還會大幅升高,因為救援人員還沒有到達災情最嚴重的地區。

德國之聲(Deutsche Welle)報導,在災情嚴重的東北部巴達克珊省(Badakhshan),省府發言人說,已知至少有19人喪生,包括三位婦人和兩個孩童,他們是在4日晚間雪崩沖垮房屋時遇難。

他又說:「還有數十人受困,我們正設法救出他們。」他表示,許多道路仍然不通。

北部薩爾普勒省(Sari Pul)的省府發言人表示,當地巴爾卡地區(Balkhab)也有五人因雪崩喪命,而且至少還有70人受困雪下,尚待救援。

而在首都喀布爾北方的巴萬省(Parwan),省府發言人也說,有16人死於雪災。

此外,大雪還導致連接阿富汗首都喀布爾與北部8省的薩朗隧道關閉數日,因喀布爾多數商店關門,供取暖用的木柴和其它基本生活用品價格上漲,導致居民生活受影響。

阿富汗總統加尼2月4日晚召開緊急部長會議,商討雪災應急救援計劃,為了應對極端天氣,阿富汗政府5日宣布全國放假一天。

阿富汗鄰國巴基斯坦也因氣候惡劣傳出災情,西北部地區至少有13人死於雪崩和豪雨。
