FAIZABAD, Afghanistan, Feb. 1 (Xinhua) -- At least 20 houses were confirmed destroyed in the northern Badakhshan province due to the earthquake that jolted Afghanistan and parts of the neighboring countries on Wednesday, spokesman for Badakhshan provincial government Nik Mohammad Nazari said Thursday.

"Our preliminary reports suggest that 20 houses were destroyed in Jarm and Shuhada districts due to the quake on Wednesday," Nazari told Xinhua.

He also said that a delegation had been sent to the quake affected area to survey the exact damage to the properties and possible loss of life and report back to the provincial government.
