Published: 8/18/2025

Flash floods in northern Pakistan have claimed at least 314 lives, with an additional 156 injured. The devastating monsoon season has caused widespread destruction, especially in the mountainous region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Glacial melt, exacerbated by global warming, is a contributing factor to the floods and landslides. Rescue efforts continue as villages are ravaged by the aftermath of the floods, with communities coming together to support relief efforts in the region.
