Pakistan Floods: 194 Dead in Monsoon Deluge, Rescue Efforts Ongoing

In Pakistan, at least 194 people have died due to record monsoon rains causing catastrophic flooding in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The National Disaster Management Authority confirmed the rising death toll, with the Buner district being the hardest hit.

The Pakistan Army is conducting rescue operations, but survivors in districts like Dir and Shangla criticize the slow response. Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has pledged resources for relief efforts, as meteorological officials warn of more rain.

The floods have submerged villages and triggered a humanitarian crisis, with ongoing rescue efforts and mobilization of military resources.
