1000 Muslims Died and Millions were displaced as there was an ongoing flood crisis in the central parts of Pakistan except for a few 2-3 developed cities. According to Tribune Express 33 million were affected, 982 dead, and 6.8 lakh houses were destroyed amid the Pak flood". The rivers Saraswati and Indus continue to swell up which makes it unbearable for the flood risk management team to rescue people as the flood has taken over almost complete Pakistan. The rains here were different than anything that's ever been seen in Pakistan - more than anything that's ever flooded the country. Due to excessive waterfalls since June, the resident of Sindh province are facing acute food shortage and in another region, children had developed waterborne diseases.
On asking one Child, she told that she and her little sister haven't had any food since yesterday. Meanwhile, the amount of flood is so excessive that there is no place for any intervention even if no dry land is visible in many parts of the affected areas that a rescue helicopter can land over it. Despite, the loss of lives Pakistan will face an ample amount of economic loss as one reports says "An assessment of the calamity's impact on the Pakistani economy estimates the monsoon rains and flash floods will cost over USD 4 billion in the current fiscal year.".
