The Indus, which caused widespread devastation in central Punjab province, flooded vast tracts of lands in Larkana, Dadu and Naushero Feroze areas of Sindh province. The floods have washed away scores of roads and bridges and submerged millions of acres of crop land. Officials today warned the ongoing wave of rains could cause more flooding as showers are expected to continue across Sindh and Balochistan provinces for two more days. Forty-seven people were killed and dozens more injured by flash floods in the mountainousGilgit-Baltistan region in northern Pakistan.Gilgit-Baltistan, earlier known as the Northern Areas, has been hit by floods and landslides following heavy monsoon rains over the past few days. The UN, which announced plans to seek 460 million dollars for an emergency response plan to help the Pakistan government, warned that there could be a second wave of deaths if relief is not expeditiously extended to the more than 14 million victims of the floods.The United Nations food agency today said an estimated 2.6 million people affected by the floods in northwest Pakistan urgently need food.
