People with cattle their belongings wade through the flood affected area of Chanda Singh Wala village in Kasur district on August 22, 2023/AFPPix: Families waded through water and cattle were loaded onto boats in a mass evacuation of around 100,000 people in Pakistan’s Punjab province, officials said Wednesday.
Rescue boats travelled from village to village over the past several days, collecting people forced to wait on the roofs of their homes as the water level rose around them. “The only route that could have been used to come and go is now under water. This 15- or 16-kilometre route is now being covered by boat so that we can rescue people.”
India has seen severe monsoon rains this year, with more than 150 killed in rain-related incidents since July.
