Dozens of fatalities and hundreds of injuries have been reported following a 7.5 magnitude earthquake that hit in northern Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. There are fears the reported death toll will rise.

The earthquake has been followed by a series of aftershocks, USGS reported. Tremors with magnitudes of 4.7 and 4.8 have hit 42-45 km east of the town of Farkhar, Takhar Province, Afghanistan.

The total death toll from the earthquake that hit Pakistan, Afghanistan and India has risen to at least 180 as Pakistani officials announced that the number of people killed in the quake in that country has reached 145, AP reports. Inayatullah Khan, Pakistan's provincial minister, told AP that the death toll only in the Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province has increased to 121.
