This week, families across Pakistan, Yemen, and Afghanistan have been struck by devastating disasters, leaving countless people in urgent need of our help.
What Has Happened
Pakistan:
- Catastrophic monsoon floods across Punjab have affected over 1–2 million people, forcing more than a million to flee their homes.
- Hundreds of lives have been lost—12 in Punjab this week alone—bringing the national death toll close to 800 since late June.
- Crops on 300,000 acres of land have been destroyed, threatening both food security and livelihoods.
Yemen:
- Flash floods have impacted more than 100,000 people—many already displaced—sweeping away homes, shelters, and infrastructure.
- Field reports highlight widespread devastation, especially in camps where families lack resilient shelter and basic services.
Afghanistan:
- A powerful 6.0-magnitude earthquake has killed over 800 people and injured more than 2,000.
- Landslides in Kunar province have cut off mountain roads, forcing rescue teams to rely on helicopters.
- Authorities and families are urgently appealing for international support.
