Floods claim 11 more lives in Balochistan: On Thursday, at least 11 people died and many were critically injured in flood-related incidents in Balochistan.
In Qila Abdullah, the Machka Dam broke, causing hundreds of houses and many connecting roads to be washed away in a flash flood. It also forced thousands of people to flee.
Furthermore, Kalmati Goth and Nasib Khaskheli Goth in Lasbela were submerged after Rori Nullah and Mithi Nullah were flooded due to heavy rains.
The water reached the national highway from the Kalamati Stop, stranding hundreds of passengers.
Other affected areas included Bahadur Khan Kalmati Goth, Bahram Khan Kalmati Goth, and Natha Khan Kalmati Goth.
Since last night, it has been raining in Kohlu and its surroundings. Rain caused mud houses to collapse, and the area is once again under threat of flooding. In Sanghar, Sindh, eight people were injured in roof collapse incidents caused by heavy rain at night.
The continuous rain in Sanghar for 22 hours also broke a 30-year record, flooding local streams and nullahs and submerging low-lying areas. Many areas, including Workshop Gujri, Chotiari, and Jhol Mian, were submerged after the nullahs overflowed.

The Meteorological Department had issued a red alert in Sanghar a month ago, but the nullahs broke due to a lack of timely cleaning.
