"Monsoon floods swept through Punjab after days of heavy downpour, killing at least 30 as of Saturday and forcing up to 481,000 people to abandon their homes. Footage captured in Kasur shows displaced families in temporary shelters, with many crowded into single tents as floodwaters remain high. "We are very poor. We have no money left. My parents had saved a few valuables for my dowry, but everything has been washed away. Now, we are left with nothing," a flood victim said. "Nothing is left. We have no clothes, and we have toddlers with us. We need help. There is no place for us to stay here," another added. Local authorities reported that over 1,700 villages were inundated, with around 1.5 million affected by the deluge. Rescue efforts are ongoing across eastern Pakistan, with Punjab officials claiming the operation to be the 'biggest rescue operation' in the province's history. The latest monsoon flooding started at the beginning of this week, following persistent heavy rains since late June. Intense rainfall in this period, combined with overflowing rivers, caused widespread destruction and casualties across Punjab during the calamitous season."
