The Afghan military flew rescue teams to the area on Saturday, as the remote mountain region is served by only narrow, poor roads which have themselves been damaged by more than a week of heavy rain.

阿富汗军方周六已经空运救援队伍赶赴灾区，因为一周多的暴雨侵蚀已经严重损坏当地狭窄破旧的陆上道路。

"We have managed to get one excavator into the area, but digging looks helpless," Colonel Abdul Qadeer Sayad, a deputy police chief of Badakhshan, told Reuters.

巴达赫尚省副警察局长Colonel Abdul Qadeer Sayad表示：“一辆挖掘机已经到达受灾地区，但对于搜救工作没什么帮助。”

He said the sheer size of the area affected, and the depth of the mud, meant that only modern machinery could help.

他表示，由于当地陡峭的地势和泥土厚度，只有现代机械设备才能帮上忙。

NATO-led coalition troops are on standby to assist but on Saturday said the Afghan government had not asked for help.

周六，北约联合部队已经待命等候救援，但他们表示目前阿富汗政府尚未寻求帮助。
