Besides geometries, there do seem to be some kind of local mappers adding POI.</div><div><br></div><div>No reports on the impact yet, though seems like relatively
low? Since it's within Iran, wouldn't expect there to be an international humanitarian response. News reports mention Iranian Red Crescent involvement, not sure if there's a relationship with Red Cross (Robert?).</div><div><br></div><div>My sense is that we can monitor, improve the geometries over Khash, could attempt to reach out to Iranian mappers.
