The 2010 Pakistan floods began in July 2010 after heavy monsoon rains, largely affecting the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. At least 2,000 people have been killed and more than 722,000 homes have been badly damaged or totally destroyed. The United Nations estimates over 20 million people are suffering with over 160,000 square kilometers (~1/5 of Pakistan) affected as a result of the flooding, exceeding the combined total of the affectees of 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Around a fifth of Pakistan's total land area was impacted by the flooding. UN Secretary-general Ban Ki-Moon said that it was the worst disaster he had ever seen, and asked for an initial $460 million for emergency relief, 20% of which had been received as of August 15, 2010.[ Extensive damage to infrastructure and crops significantly harmed the struggling Pakistani economy.]
Thank you for sharing Samir!
