Pakistan will need the same level of international support that it was able to gather during the 2010 floods. The US followed by UK were the most significant donors during that period. I believe that at least $1 billion will be necessary to restore and reboot the rural economy
.,., So far in Pakistan Flood's 2022,
over 1300 people have died,
5,600+ have been injured,
750,000+ houses have been completely destroyed,
4,800+ kilometres of roads have been damaged,
210 bridges destroyed,
90% of crop area damaged
and 50 million people have been displaced.
In order to maintain some semblance of reliability on the incoming reports and provide donors, victims, reporters and citizens with reliable and credible information in an easy to access platform - a map similar to UA Maps has been established and can be accessed here:
116 districts affected, including 66 districts officially declared ‘calamity hit’.
At least 937 people killed and 1,343 people injured since 14 June.
Rainfall nationwide is 2.87 times higher than the national 30-year average, with some provinces receiving more than five times as much rainfall as their 30-year average.
The Government of Pakistan has earmarked PKR 35 billion (ca. US$173 million) to aid flood-affected people under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), among other assistance.
Humanitarian partners are providing aid for flood-affected people even as weather and ground conditions inhibit access.
The humanitarian situation is expected to worsen as communities and infrastructure are increasingly unable to cope with ongoing heavy rainfall.
