Attachments

This report was issued by UNOCHA Pakistan. It covers the period from 25 to 27 August. The next report will be issued on or around 30 August.

I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES

- The flood situation in southern Sindh continues to deteriorate; large-scale population movements have been reported following the breach of an embankment in Thatta district on 26 August.

- An additional coordination hub is planned in Hyderabad to support scaled up response in southern Sindh.

- Though the Pakistan Initial Floods Emergency Response Plan (PIFERP) is now 64% funded, coverage has been uneven; WASH and health clusters, both key priorities at this point, are just 28% and 43% covered respectively.
