Pakistan Flood Crushed Over 30 Million People

Pakistan has had a long history of floods throughout the years. However, the recent flood disaster broke all records. The number and strength of the monsoon rains in 2022 caused the worst flooding the country has ever seen. It began in June 2022 and continued through August 2022. This flood has impacted a growing number of communities.

The Misery

33 million people are affected by the floods. Among them, more than 1,600 have died and 184,000 have been relocated. More than 1 million homes have been washed aw ay by floods and landslides caused by heavy rain. Crops and animals have been destroyed. So, people in Pakistan affected by floods cannot get food, medical care, clothes, etc. Pakistan’s Minister has termed this intense flooding as the most “unprecedented” and hazardous disaster in the history of Pakistan flooding. The Government of Pakistan has appealed for international support. They are collaborating with the UN and international agencies to deliver aid.
