HIGHLIGHTS
Severe flooding caused by relentless monsoon rains and rising river levels has unleashed a
major humanitarian crisis across Pakistan, with the provinces of Gilgit-Baltistan, Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa, and Punjab suffering the heaviest toll. Since 26 June, the floods have affected over
6.9 million people nationwide, resulting in widespread destruction, displacement, and disruption
of livelihoods. Punjab remains the most severely impacted, with more than 4.7 million people
affected, followed by 1.6 million in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, 171,000 in Sindh, and 356,000 in
Gilgit-Baltistan.
Nearly 2.9 million people have been forced to flee their homes, many of whom are now sheltering
in temporary evacuation centers set up by provincial authorities. More than 4,700 villages have
been completely inundated, cutting off communities from basic services, destroying vast
agricultural lands, damaging homes, and crippling critical infrastructure. The magnitude of the
disaster underscores the urgent need for immediate relief efforts, recovery support, and a
well-coordinated humanitarian response to meet the escalating needs of the affected population.
