In Pakistan, over 123 people have been killed and more than 462 injured in Punjab province due to rain-triggered incidents since late June, as record torrential monsoon rains inundated residential areas. The Provincial Disaster Management Authority of the country said today, as many as 10 people died across Punjab in the last 48 hours.
The Pakistani authorities warned of a fresh monsoon spell from July 20 to 25 in several regions of the country, accompanied by heavy rainfall, gusty winds, dust storms, and potential flash floods. Media reports suggest that no single government official or elected representative visited the affected regions, while the flood relief camps received no facilities, with neither food nor assistance. In the absence of government support, residents avoided taking shelter in any flood camps.
