At least two people were killed and more than twenty others injured due to torrential rains and flooding in Balochistan’s Dera Murad Jamali, Dera Bugti, and Barkhan.
Reports indicate that heavy rains and subsequent flooding caused a significant rise in water levels across several districts in Balochistan. While the rains brought relief from the heat and improved the weather, they also caused extensive damage, including the collapse of several houses. The Meteorological Department has forecasted additional rainfall in Barkhan and the surrounding areas.
In Sui, Dera Bugti, the rains, accompanied by high-speed winds and thunderstorms, led to the collapse of houses, resulting in two fatalities and over twenty injuries.
The local administration reported that most of the injured victims, including women and children, have been transported to the PPL Sui for treatment. At least six of the injured are in critical condition, suffering severe head injuries from collapsing roofs.
