A night of heavy rainfall caused significant disruption in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, with water levels in the Nullah Lai river rising to dangerous levels. The rain, which started around 12:30 am, continued throughout the night, inundating low-lying areas.
By morning, the water level in Nullah Lai at the Katarian Bridge had surged to 16 feet, but it returned to normal after the rain subsided. While in Gawalmandi, it rose to 12.5 feet.
Local authorities declared a rain emergency in Rawalpindi, with teams from the Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA) deployed in flood-prone areas.
Despite the rain subsiding by morning, the situation remained critical, and efforts to mitigate flooding continued.

The heavy rain also swept through surrounding areas, including Murree, Galyat, and Azad Kashmir, providing relief from the ongoing heatwave and humidity.
The Meteorological Department reported substantial rainfall across the region, with 87mm recorded in Islamabad’s Saidpur, 75mm in New Katarian, and 42mm in Gawalmandi.
In Hassan Abdal, a town near Rawalpindi, a Vigo van was swept away by a seasonal stream near Jhari Kass, carrying 10 passengers.
While five people were rescued and moved to safety, four women and one child remain missing. Search and rescue teams are currently scouring the area in a bid to locate the missing individuals.
Further disruptions were reported in Bhimber, where rivers and streams overflowed due to the heavy rainfall.
The Deputy Commissioner of Bhimber has warned that anyone attempting to drive through flooded roads will be arrested.
Additionally, a ban has been imposed on collecting firewood from floodwaters to prevent accidents.
The Meteorological Department has forecast thunderstorms and more rain across northern Pakistan, including Kashmir, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, central Punjab, and Islamabad.

正文：
• Overflowing Indus and Chenab destroy houses, farmland in several districts; stagnant rainwater in Hafizabad yet to be drained
• Authorities asked to prepare for another monsoon spell starting today
• Babusar Road ‘partially reopened’ as search continues for tourists swept away by torrents
LAHORE: Floods in the Indus and Chenab rivers have inundated over a dozen villages in several districts of Punjab, prompting the authorities to evacuate thousands of people to safer locations, while the government has asked rescue departments to brace for urban and riverine floods as well as landslides in light of the new monsoon spell starting today.
LAHORE: Thousands of people from more villages of Taunsa and Layyah had to leave their homes to find safer places on Tuesday due to medium level flood in the Sindh river.
The people had to leave different villages in Taunsa, including Mauza Moor Jhangi, Bait Kachhela, Panj Darain, Bait Channar, Bait Ashraf, Jarh Leghari and Mouza Baloch Khan.
In Layyah, the people were evacuated from Mouza Lohaj, Thori, Samra Jhok Khan, Basti Kanjo Mohana, Darkhan Khokhar, Panwar, Alliyani Basti, and Rakhwan. A double-storey police check post built in Rakhwan was also submerged completely by floodwater and all its structure demolished. A high school in Basti Alliyani also submerged by water and cracks appeared in its building.
In Karor Lal Esan, Bait Mongar was also flooded and all its houses and mosque were also destroyed. The floodwater entered cultivated lands, making it a part of the river in Layyah and Karor Lal Esan.
In Dera Ghazi Khan, several villages were submerged by floodwater including Jhok Utra, Kot Chuta, Malkani Kalan.
DG Khan residents protest turning of river for new Layyah-Taunsa Bridge
The residents of the area protested against poor management of a bund built to turn the river to construct Layyah-Taunsa Bridge. They said that the river had changed its way and started flowing in another direction, engulfing thousands of agriculture land where different crops, including cotton, were destroyed by the medium level flood.
“A high level flood in the past would easily pass from Layyah but the poor design of the newly-constructed Layyah-Taunsa bridge changed the flow of the river and it started flooding old localities and villages. Thousands of acres of crops also come under water in both districts,” the locals said.
The crack emerged in the bank of the river to protect the Layyah-Taunsa Bridge also could not be filled after two days due to poor management of the authorities.
A resident of Layyah Khurrum Khar told Dawn that out of their 450 acres, only 175 acres was left dry and all their land had been swallowed up by the Sindh river.
He also said the government had changed the way of the river to construct the Layyah-Taunsa Bridge and it resulted in catastrophe for their land.
“We only can demand the government to fix the problem otherwise we would become landless and the river will also swallow our villages permanently,” the man decried.
Earlier, the Punjab Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) issued a flood alert for several regions as the province braces for rising water levels in major rivers and urban flooding due to more heavy monsoon rains.
According to the Pakistan Met Department (PMD), scattered to widespread thunderstorms with isolated heavy falls are expected over the upper catchments of the Indus, Jhelum, Chenab, and Ravi rivers, as well as in Islamabad, Peshawar, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, and Lahore divisions over the next 48 hours.
The Flood Forecasting Division (FFD) has reported that the Indus river is currently at medium flood level at Guddu, while low flood conditions persist at Tarbela, Kalabagh, Chashma, Taunsa, and Sukkur.
Meanwhile, the Jhelum and Chenab rivers are experiencing low to medium-level flows and more flow is expected due to an incoming weather system from July 30 to 31. The FFD also warned of moderate flooding in the nullahs of the Ravi river and tributaries of the Kabul river, with increased flows expected in the Sutlej river at Ganda Singhwala after 24 hours. Urban flooding is likely in Islamabad, Peshawar, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala and Lahore.
PDMA Punjab issued alerts to commissioners and deputy commissioners of multiple divisions, including Rawalpindi, Sargodha, Faisalabad, and Bahawalpur.
Relief Commissioner Punjab Nabeel Javed directed officials to remain vigilant and ensure all precautionary measures are in place.
PDMA DG Irfan Ali Kathia emphasized the need for advanced preparations, including the activation of emergency control rooms and disaster response teams.
He urged the public to cooperate with administration efforts, particularly in evacuation procedures for riverside settlements and livestock.
Reservoir levels remain under watch, with Tarbela Dam at 87.08% live storage and Mangla Dam at 57.36%. Historical data indicates the potential for significant peaks, though current forecasts suggest manageable conditions.
The Punjab government has assured citizens of comprehensive support, including food, clean water, and medical aid at relief camps.

标题：NDMA warns of GLOF risk in Gilgit-Baltistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
时间：2025-7-30
正文：
ISLAMABAD: The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) on Wednesday issued a warning about the heightened risk of Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) in Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), amid intensified monsoon activity across the country.
In a nationwide, impact-based weather alert, the NDMA cautioned against potential urban flooding, landslides, and GLOFs, urging citizens to take precautionary measures and avoid unnecessary travel during the forecast period from July 31 to August 3.
According to the NDMA’s National Emergencies Operation Center (NEOC), weak monsoon currents are currently entering upper and central Pakistan and are expected to intensify due to the influence of a westerly wave. This weather system poses significant hazards, particularly for urban and low-lying areas of Punjab and KP.
Urban flooding is forecast in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, Lahore, Sialkot, Khushab, Narowal, and other cities, with sudden swellings expected in northeastern Punjab’s Bein, Basanter, and Deg Nullahs. Residents of flood-prone areas are advised to remain vigilant, limit outdoor activities, and stay informed of weather updates.
In KP, widespread rainfall is expected in districts including Chitral, Dir, Swat, Kalam, Mansehra, Battagram, Abbottabad, Haripur, Swabi, Mardan, Peshawar, Charsadda, Kohat, Hangu, Bannu, Lakki Marwat, and Dera Ismail Khan.
These areas face increased risks of urban flooding, flash floods, and landslides, particularly in hilly regions. Strong winds and thunderstorms may also cause damage to trees, power lines, and reduce visibility—posing additional road safety hazards.
A GLOF alert remains in effect for the glaciated regions of GB and KP, where a combination of heavy rainfall and recent glacier melt due to high temperatures may trigger sudden flooding events. The alert is valid through August 3.
Particularly vulnerable valleys include Badswat, Hinarchi, Tersat, Hundur, Darkut, Ishkomen, Shisper, Reshun, Brep, Booni, Sardar Gol, and Arkari. These areas are at heightened risk of downstream flooding, landslides, road closures, infrastructure damage, and disruption of access to remote locations.
The NDMA has directed provincial and district administrations to ensure the readiness of flood response teams, clear drainage channels, and prepare for potential evacuation and rescue operations. Tourists and travelers are strongly advised to avoid high-altitude and glacial regions of GB and KP during the alert period.
The NDMA, through the NEOC, is closely monitoring the evolving situation and maintaining coordination with provincial and district disaster management authorities for a timely and effective response.
Citizens are urged to stay informed via official channels and to download the “Pak NDMA Disaster Alert” mobile app for real-time alerts and safety guidelines.
