Global Flash Floods: Rising Death Toll and Devastation

At least 41 people have died in northern India due to heavy rain and flash floods, with 31 deaths in Himachal Pradesh and 10 deaths in Punjab. Over 2,000 people have been evacuated, and relief efforts are underway to reopen roads affected by landslides. The Dalai Lama's trust will also contribute to the rescue and relief efforts. More rain is expected in the region, with isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall forecasted until the end of the week. Delhi experienced its wettest July day in over 40 years, leading to school closures, and the water levels in the Yamuna River have surpassed the Highest Flood Level mark for the first time since 1978.
