باكستان تستنفر لمواجهة الموجة الـ11 من الأمطار الموسمية

The Regional Disaster Management Authority in Punjab Province (eastern Pakistan) has issued a new warning ahead of the arrival of the 11th wave of monsoon rains, cautioning that rivers, streams, and floodplains may face serious flooding in the coming days.

Heavy Rainfall

The Pakistani newspaper The Nation reported that the spokesperson for the authority indicated that heavy rains are likely to hit the upper catchment areas of the rivers, starting from Tuesday until next Friday, which increases the risk of river flooding and threatens the villages and cities located in the watercourse.

Evacuation of Thousands

In a related context, Pakistani officials announced that rescue teams, supported by army forces, have successfully evacuated more than a thousand people from a city in Punjab Province, in anticipation of rising water levels.

Warnings for Residents

The Regional Disaster Management Authority in Punjab Province urged residents in at-risk areas to exercise caution and follow official instructions, and has set up a hotline for emergency assistance to report any situation requiring urgent intervention.
