Can Pakistan handle the worst flooding in decades?

 



At least 1,100 people have died in two months of torrential monsoon rains.

Although monsoon rains are an annual occurrence in Pakistan, this year’s deluge has caused the most destructive floods in most people’s memories.

Some provinces have received more than five times the average rainfall since June. The climate change minister has called it a “climate-induced humanitarian disaster of epic proportions”.
