Pakistan has issued a glacial flood warning for its northwestern regions as the country faces above-average monsoon rainfall, raising fears of disasters similar to the catastrophic 2022 floods, Al Jazeera reported on Saturday.
The World Health Organisation and Pakistan's Health Ministry have warned that climate change is fueling a surge in malaria cases across Pakistan, calling for urgent, coordinated action to contain the threat and protect public health.
The victims of those floods have still not received any compensation or houses from the PoGB administration. One of the victims who had lost his house in the 2022 floods stated, "I was here when the floods came. And I saw it from my own eyes when the water destroyed our homes."
