Severe thunderstorms and deadly lightning strikes in the Arghandab and Maiwand districts of Kandahar province have tragically claimed three lives. The victims of this extreme weather event include a young eight-year-old girl.
The Taliban's provincial police command officially confirmed the fatal lightning strike near Maiwand district. Local sources also reported a separate heartbreaking incident in Arghandab, where fierce winds caused a heavy solar panel to collapse and crush a child.
Southern Afghan provinces, particularly Kandahar, Uruzgan, and Helmand, have endured relentless storms and torrential rains over the past few days. These extreme weather conditions have caused widespread financial damage and dangerously overflowing water levels at the major Kajaki Dam.
