Record monsoon rains began to fall in Pakistan’s mountainous northwest region about July 22, causing flash floods in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, and Balochistanprovinces. The unprecedented volume of rainwater overwhelmed flood defenses, sweeping away roads and bridges and inundating large areas of land. By August 1 at least 1,000 people had been killed by flooding and at least 1,000,000 had been forced from their homes. As the floodwaters surged downriver into Balochistan and Sindhprovinces in August, rain continued to fall in the northwest. With one-fifth of Pakistan affected by mid-August, rescuers and humanitarian aid workers struggled to reach victims stranded by rising water and by extensive damage to roads and bridges.
