Historic Flooding in Pakistan Creates Urgent Need

PakFloodPicTEAM is reaching out to families displaced by what has been recorded as the worst flooding to ever hit Pakistan. Flash floods and landslides were brought on by unusually heavy monsoon rains, displacing up to twenty million people and leaving more than 1500 people dead in the north.
The death toll may rise to 3,000, said Mujahid Khan, a spokesman for Pakistan’s independent Edhi rescue service, according to Bloomberg News. “People in the Swat Valley in northern Pakistan hit by the catastrophic floods were only just recovering from the conflict that forced them from their homes last year”, said TEAM’s Area Leader in Pakistan. He said the devastation has extended to approximately 25% of the country including south in   Punjab and Sindh Provinces.

URGENT NEED TO HELP FAMILIES

TEAM has joined other Christian groups in the relief efforts in Khyber-Pukhtoonkwa (KP) Province, distributing provisions of food for displaced families. Floods have damaged, destroyed or cut off thousands of villages and communities and caused extensive damage to roads and bridges. Thousands of families are facing brutal conditions without clean water, adequate shelter, medical care and very low supplies of food. Due to the lack of food and their vulnerability, a bout of diarrhea for the young or elderly could be deadly.
The time to deliver urgent relief is now.
