Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox flood From March to July of 2023, floods caused by monsoon rains returned to Pakistan after nine months. They worsened at the end of June due to upcoming monsoon rains.[1] At least 159 people were killed, including many children.[1]
Background
Many major floods have occurred in Pakistan. Flooding in 2020 killed 410 people and caused US$1.5 billion worth of damage,[2] with 187 deaths occurring in Karachi in 2021[3] and 1,739 killed across the country in 2022.[4]
Impact
At least 159 people were killed, including 96 who died in July.[5] There were also 264 injuries, including 151 who were hurt in July.[6]
Balochistan
Flooding on 17 March killed ten people in Balochistan, including eight in Awaran District. On 30 April, flooding affected several houses, left four dead and four others injured.[7] Flooding in July killed six in the province.[6] In Pakistan, poor governance has exacerbated the issue of flooding, primarily impacting the provinces of Sindh and Balochistan. This calamity has claimed the lives of over 1,100 individuals and left 33 million others grappling with its devastating consequences. Additionally, nearly 750,000 people find themselves deprived of secure and suitable housing, access to education, and essential healthcare facilities.[8]

Flooding in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province killed 11 people from 24 March to 3 April,[9] with 17 more deaths, including eight from a landslide, and nine injuries occurring in the rest of April.[7]
From June 10 to 11, over 20 people were killed and 100 others were injured due to flooding, including 15 in Bannu District.[10] At least 20 more deaths occurred the following month,[5] including eight children who were killed by a landslide in Shangla District on July 6.[1]
