An earthquake in eastern Afghanistan near the Pakistan border has killed hundreds and left more than a thousand injured, the country's state-run broadcaster Radio Television Afghanistan (RTA) reported, with fears that many more could be among the dead. The quake late Sunday hit a series of towns in the province of Kunar, near the city of Jalalabad in neighbouring Nangahar province. The 6.0 magnitude was just 8km deep.
