Monsoon rains flood Pakistan's financial capital, forcing residents to abandon homes
CA, 28 Aug 2020
Torrential rain lashed the Pakistani financial capital of Karachi on Thursday, causing widespread flooding, as downpours in August shattered 89-year-old records for the city, meteorological officials said.
The floods have killed at least 24 people and injured 18 so far, emergency services said, while residents have been forced to abandon their homes.
Monsoon rains wreak havoc in cities and towns across Pakistan where drainage and sewage systems are antiquated and outdated. Deadly floods occur regularly during the monsoon season in both Pakistan and neighbouring India.
