The earthquakes cause widespread destruction, with large numbers of residents affected across impacted areas. Beyond immediate injuries and fatalities, concern is growing about the scale of humanitarian needs. Multiple outlets report that millions more people may lack access to sanitation and other basic services in the aftermath of the disaster.

As the situation develops, authorities and aid groups are working to restore basic services and provide support to survivors, including those at risk of health impacts due to disrupted sanitation systems.
