Flood in Pakistan
Monsoon rains have lead to widespread flooding in the Punjab and Sindh Province's of Pakistan, where over 130 people have been reported killed and government reports indicate that as many as 1 million may be affected.
The rain began in early August and has resulted in flash floods which have destroyed 10,000 homes so far and reportedly affected almost 2000 villages. 15,000 people have been evacuated to relief camps.
The flood waters have also affected crops and cattle, killing an estimated 5000 cattle and destroying hundreds of thousands of acres of crops. These losses will lead to long-term consequences for the local villagers, who rely on the farms for their food. Local roads have been inundated, further hampering relief efforts and disrupting travel.
More rain is forecast and it is expected that the floodwaters will affect more villages as they flow downstream.
