Our nation might never forget this  Saturday morning because of worst earthquake, 7.6 magnitude,  in our history shook our country Pakistan, and about 3,000 people are confirmed dead.

The quake hit Saturday at 8:50 a.m. local time (11:50 p.m. ET Friday). The epicenter was about 60 miles north-northeast of Islamabad. Effects of the quake, the most intense in the region in a century, were felt hundreds of miles away. emote towns and major cities, such as Pakistan's capital of Islamabad, India's capital of New Delhi and the Pakistani city of Lahore, were shaken.
