PAKISTAN FLOODS

Pakistan's worst floods in 80 years have killed more than 1,600 people and affected more than 13 million - about 8 percent of the population. The authorities are struggling to help survivors, many of whom have lost everything and say they received no warnings that raging waters were heading their way.

Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority now estimates that more than 12 million people are being adversely affected. This number could rise as flood waters move south. Further heavy rain is also predicted.

The use of contaminated water is causing water-borne diseases among the affected population and the people are in drastic need of drinking water.
