Pakistanis in deadly scramble for scarce donations.

Deadly chaos has erupted in Pakistan as people scramble for scarce donations of food and cash from charities trying to help the most vulnerable cope with runaway prices. The country is struggling with its most serious economic crisis in years, with global factors compounding consumer inflation. The impact of inflation is compounded by smaller donations of the traditional zakat alms for the poor, with a 50% reduction in donations this year, while there has been a 50% increase in people seeking help. The situation is likely to get worse as charities struggle to deal with rising inflation and costs, and donor fatigue sets in.
