A humanitarian crisis is unfolding in Punjab and Sindh as severe floods have submerged hundreds of villages across Multan, Rahim Yar Khan, Rajanpur, Vehari and surrounding districts. Over 4.5 million people have been impacted, with crop fields on millions of acres destroyed.
The Chenab River at Panjnad Barrage is at a very high flood level, with similar concerns raised for Guddu Barrage in the next 24-48 hours.
Households are being washed away, roads submerged, and infrastructure compromised. In Rajanpur, thousands of residents have been evacuated, and over 100,000 livestock relocated. In Vehari, more than 100 villages are underwater; in Rahim Yar Khan, multiple riverine settlements are flooded. Dunya News
