Pakistan Monsoon Floods Cause Over 100 Deaths Amid Continued Rain Forecast
Pakistan's National Disaster Management Authority reported 109 deaths from monsoon rains and flash flooding since June 26, with nearly half in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Heavy rains recently caused flooding in Lahore, disrupting commutes and prompting criticism of government preparedness. Officials reviewed flood readiness and plan to issue timely warnings for river communities to evacuate or relocate. Authorities caution that extreme weather similar to the devastating 2022 floods, which killed over 1,700 people, remains a risk.
