Floods in Pakistan kill 126 in two days

Flooding in the country lasts from mid-July. In total, more than 900 people died and around 50,000 were left homeless.

Heavy rains have caused severe flooding in Pakistan since mid-June. As a result, 903 people died and about 50,000 people were displaced, according to the Associated Press, citing the country’s emergency management agency.

It is worth noting that thousands of people whose houses were razed to the ground are now living in tents, miles from their flooded villages and cities, after they were rescued by soldiers, local rescuers and volunteers.

The National Disaster Management Authority said on Wednesday that 126 people had died in flood-related incidents in the past 48 hours, with most of the victims being women and children.

The flooding further aggravated the economic crisis in Pakistan. Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif gave a speech from abroad on Wednesday calling on philanthropists to help the flooded areas of Pakistan.

Sharif is currently in Qatar, where he came to seek financial aid, loans and foreign investment for his country. His government promised to compensate those who lost their homes in the floods.

After talks with the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Sharif announced that the Qatar Investment Authority is ready to invest $3 billion in Pakistan. The trip was Sharif’s first official visit to Qatar as prime minister since he succeeded Imran Khan, who was ousted in April in a no-confidence vote in parliament.

Recall that in early August in Pakistan, hundreds of people died during heavy rains.

It was later reported that a bus collided with a tanker in Pakistan, killing 20 people.
