What is the current situation in Pakistan, where floods instantly destroyed high-rise hotels?

The local situation is not optimistic. The death toll has exceeded 1000, and the number of people affected has reached 30 million. Pakistan suffered a huge flood. According to the local government, there are 3-4 rounds of heavy rainfall every summer in China, each lasting 3-5 days. This injury is because the monsoon has reached eight rounds and the precipitation has tripled in previous years. It is said that the last time such heavy precipitation occurred was 1 1 years ago.

Since mid-July, there has been heavy rainfall in the local area. Many residents' houses were washed away by the rain, and everyone's drinking water safety was also threatened. With the flood, cholera came and many people died in this disaster. The situation continued until the end of July, not only did it not turn less, but it became more and more serious. Even Karachi, the largest city, suffered from serious waterlogging. In the middle and late August, there was another heavy rainfall in Pakistan, which made the already bad situation worse.

Many roads and villages were destroyed by flash floods and mudslides, houses and farmland were flooded by heavy rains, and thousands of Pakistanis were homeless. Due to the serious road damage, rescue vehicles and materials could not enter the disaster area at all, which also made the rescue work very difficult. Both the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund have provided him with emergency assistance, and many countries in the world have also begun to send materials to Pakistan to ensure that they can carry out rescue work smoothly.

I am also very helpful in this regard, providing tents, blankets, waterproof sheds and many other materials, which have been put into rescue. Considering the situation in Pakistan, our country has replenished the materials again and tried to arrive as soon as possible. In fact, these are far from over. This disaster has brought great losses to Pakistan. Cotton and date palms, which local residents depend on for their livelihood, have been seriously damaged. Compared with previous years, cotton production alone will drop by 30%, and the total loss will reach $654.38+000 billion.
