109 killed in Pakistan’s monsoon rains and floods, disaster agency says

Last month’s monsoon rains and subsequent floods have claimed the lives of 109 people in Pakistan, the country’s disaster agency reports.

Many of the deaths have occurred when buildings and roofs collapsed under the heavy rain. The northwestern parts of the country have been hardest hit.

More rain is expected later this week and the disaster agency warns that it cannot be ruled out that the weather will trigger new deadly floods.
