Pakistan Monsoon Floods Turn Deadly: 117 Killed In 24 Hours As Death Toll Soars Past 320 | SHOCKING

Pakistan is reeling from catastrophic monsoon rains that have left at least 117 people dead in just 24 hours, pushing the nationwide death toll past 320 since the “unusual” summer downpours began. The mountainous Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province bore the brunt, losing 110 lives, while flash floods in Buner killed 56 alone. Torrential rains have triggered landslides, cloudbursts, and deadly flash floods across northern Pakistan, leaving rescue teams scrambling through mud and rubble to reach survivors. Authorities have issued fresh heavy rain alerts, warning of more devastation as vulnerable regions remain at risk. Climate experts warn that such extreme weather events, intensified by climate change, could mirror the catastrophic 2022 floods that submerged a third of the country. Entire villages are being swept away, children are among the dead, and thousands remain stranded in the path of nature’s fury. #PakistanFloods #MonsoonRains #ClimateCrisis #PakistanDisaster #KhyberPakhtunkhwa #BunerFloods #FlashFloods #PakistanRescue #PakistanWeather #ClimateChange #PakistanAlert #PakistanMonsoon #ExtremeWeather #PakistanLandslides #RainDisaster #PakistanEmergency #MonsoonCrisis #PakistanDeaths #PakistanStorm #NatureFury
