Roobabka Monsoon-ka iyo Daadadka Pakistan Oo Dilay Ugu Yaraan 107 Qof

Roobab culus iyo daadad ka dhacay Pakistan ayaa dilay ugu yaraan 107 qof, ku dhaawacay 344 kale, kuna burburiyay boqolaal guri tan iyo bilaha June markii uu bilaabmay xilliga monsoon-ka. NDMA ayaa xaqiijisay tiro dhimashada ee Axad.

Dhimashada iyo Meelaha Ugu Badan

Gobolka Khyber Pakhtunkhwa ayaa la diiwaangeliyay tirada ugu badan ee dhimashada, 55, waxaana ku xigay Punjab 36 dhimasho. Tani waxay muujinaysaa saameynta gobolada waqooyi iyo bartamaha ee daadadka iyo roobabka xilligan.

In ka badan kala badh dhimashada waxaa sababay burburka guryaha ama saqafyada, sida ay NDMA qortay. Tani waxay iftiimaysaa khatarta ka dhalata dhismayaasha aan xoogganayn ee ay dadku ku nool yihiin inta roobabku sii socdaan.

Xaaladda Punjab iyo Lahore

Lahore, caasimadda Punjab iyo magaalada labaad ee ugu weyn Pakistan, mas'uuliyiinta ayaa sameeyay ugu yaraan 17 xero gargaar daadad ah oo loogu talagalay dadka laga saaray. Sarkaal sare oo ka tirsan Waaxda Waraabka Punjab ayaa Axadii hore ku tilmaamay xaaladda 'aad u cabsi badan'.

Sarkaalku wuxuu yidhi, 'The current situation resembles an inland sea because of the vast expanse of floodwater.' Wuxuu ku daray in 'a vast area of around 400sq km [154sq miles]' ay biyo hoostiis tahay Lahore iyo Gujranwala. CM Maryam Nawaz Sharif ayaa sheegtay in la diray kooxo gargaar.

Saadaasha Cimilada iyo Digniinta

Waaxda Cimilada Pakistan ayaa Axad sheegtay inaan la filayn 'flood-generating activity' ilaa Talaado, laakiin 'a fresh wet spell is likely to commence' Arbaco. Webiga Ravi ee Punjab waa 'medium flood level', inta webi kale ay yihiin 'normal to low'.

Kamal Hyder oo Al Jazeera uga warramaya Punjab ayaa sheegay in mas'uuliyiinta ay uga digayaan aagagga hoose. Wuxuu yidhi, 'So far the monsoon has brought pounding rain... All eyes now will be on the rivers.' Wuxuu raaciyay, 'This is just the middle... keep everybody on their toes.'

NDMA confirms rising toll since late June while officials warn of new rainfall midweek

Heavy rains and flooding in Pakistan have killed at least 107 people and injured 344 others since the monsoon began in June, with hundreds of homes damaged. The NDMA reported the toll on Sunday as authorities prepared for further wet weather later this week.

Regional Death Toll and Damage

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has recorded the highest number of deaths at 55, followed by Punjab with 36 fatalities. The NDMA stated that more than half of all deaths were caused by house or roof collapses during the ongoing rain-related incidents.

In Lahore, Punjab's capital and Pakistan's second-largest city, authorities have established at least 17 flood relief camps for evacuated residents. A senior Punjab Irrigation Department official told Dawn the situation was 'very alarming', with around 400sq km under water.

Official Response and River Conditions

The official described the scene: 'The current situation resembles an inland sea because of the vast expanse of floodwater.' Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif said on X that responders were deployed and teams were draining floodwaters across the province.

The Pakistan Meteorological Department said no 'flood-generating activity is expected' until Tuesday, but 'a fresh wet spell is likely to commence' from Wednesday. It added the Ravi River is at a 'medium flood level' while most major rivers are normal to low.

Outlook and Vulnerabilities

Al Jazeera's Kamal Hyder reported from Punjab that authorities urge residents to avoid low-lying areas. He said cloudbursts brought hundreds of millimetres of rain, inundating Lahore, adding 'All eyes now will be on the rivers.' Disorganised planning has worsened slum flooding risk.

Hyder noted 'This is just the middle of the monsoon season, which is likely to continue until September,' and 'That will keep everybody on their toes.' In 2025, flooding killed 1,037 people and displaced two million, with millions of livestock lost and crops damaged.
