An unprecedented monsoon season has devastated the lives of vulnerable communities across Pakistan. Nearly 1,000 people have died, including hundreds of children. Homes, livestock, farmland and entire lives have been lost to the raging currents.

Everything lost to water

This monsoon season is unlike any other in Pakistan. Instead of the usual river flooding, monstrous rains have now also caused unprecedented urban flooding, flash floods, and severe inundations due to glacier bursts. Several regions across the country have been hit with three to five times more rainfall than usual.

The most affected have been the regions of Balochistan, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Punjab where almost 700,000 homes, nearly 800,000 livestock 3,000 km of the roadway and more than 145 bridges have been damaged or destroyed.

Now, internet outages have been reported making travel and communication nearly impossible for those displaced and in need of assistance. The devastation is beyond catastrophic, with tens of millions of vulnerable people homeless, uprooted from their communities, and facing a forecast of more rain and flooding as dams and waterways rapidly fill.

Across these flood-hit regions, fleeing to higher ground is ever more precarious with raging flood waters seemingly everywhere. Still, flood-affected survivors urgently need medical aid, food, clean water, and adequate shelter. And Pakistan hasn’t seen the last of this devastation with even more rain, more flooding, and a potential ninth monsoon cycle expected.
