Deadly Flash Floods Devastate Afghanistan and Pakistan

Flash floods caused by heavy rains have killed at least 31 people in Afghanistan and triggered landslides that claimed the lives of 13 others in Pakistan. Dozens of people are missing in both countries. The floods have caused significant damage to homes, agricultural land, and infrastructure, exacerbating the already dire situation in Afghanistan, which is facing drought, economic hardship, and the aftermath of decades of war. In Pakistan, heavy rainfall and landslides have also caused casualties and destruction, with the monsoon season continuing to impact the country.
