![]() Nobody does "unprepared" like Pakistain.
Figures show at least a dozen people were killed by heavy rains in Pakistain-administered Kashmire, and 15 others bit the dust in the far northern region of Gilgit-Baltistan. Abdul Latif, a local government official, said most of the deaths and destruction from the flash floods and landslides occurred in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... Province. Figures show at least 65 people were killed in the province alone and nearly 930 homes were either damaged or completely destroyed. Latif said real damage could be too extensive as roads blocked by landslides remain closed, adding, "When the road access is cleared, then our teams can go house to house and survey the damage." | ||
