We’re horrified by reports of devastating floods in Pakistan, where many residents were caught unprepared and had no way to escape. Our hearts go out to the countless children and their families who must endure unimaginable hardship during the Pakistan floods.
The Deadliest Flash Floods In The Country History
It has been said that the recent flooding in Pakistan is the worst the country has ever seen.
Compared to the monsoon floods of 2010, in which over a thousand residents lost their lives, this tragedy is even worse.
Due to climate change, this year’s monsoon season has been the worst in the past decade. A large portion of central and northern Pakistan has received around 600% of average rainfall, while southern Pakistan has received above 1,000% of average rain, making this monsoon season cause one-third of the country to sink under the water. In terms of deaths and widespread damage, Sindh and Balochistan are the most severely affected provinces.
Over Thousands Dead And Injured In Pakistan Floods
Devastating floods produced by the monsoon rainfall have hit Pakistan, forcing millions from their homes and washing away cities, bridges, and roadways. More than 1,000 deaths and injured due to sudden landslides and floods along the Indus and Kabul rivers, with the most extensive flood-affected areas being in the southern regions of Sindh and Balochistan. Numerous flood victims have been waiting for humanitarian assistance, and officials reported that the death toll is expected to increase.
Destruction Of Homes, Schools, Hospitals, And Farms
In addition to the civilian deaths and injuries, United Nations mentioned that the flooding in Pakistan caused almost a million animal deaths. It has also affected nearly 2 million acres of farmland and orchards.
Roads and bridges have been damaged over thousands of kilometers this season, making reaching communities affected by flooding more difficult. As a result, many people and their remaining animals have taken shelter on elevated highways and train tracks.
