Supporting Flood-Affected Communities in Pakistan
Heavy monsoon rains continue to batter Pakistan, with particularly severe impacts across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Gilgit-Baltistan (GB), Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK), and Punjab. The most recent spell (14–15 August 2025) triggered devastating flash floods, cloudbursts, and landslides, causing catastrophic loss of life, widespread destruction of property, and severe disruption of livelihoods.
According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), cumulative nationwide figures (26 June – 17 August 2025) stand at:
- 645 fatalities and 905 injuries
- 1,913+ houses destroyed/damaged
- 124 bridges and 450+ km of roads damaged
- 587 livestock lost
With weather forecasts warning of continued heavy rains and an approaching westerly wave, the risk of further urban flooding, flash floods, and landslides remains high.
