Pakistan floods: More than 900 dead in humanitarian disaster of 'epic proportions'
Pakistan's minister for climate change Sherry Rehman on Thursday said recent flash flooding that followed an extreme heat wave was a "humanitarian disaster of epic proportions."
"Thousands are without shelter, many are without food and people are stranded," she said, adding that the scale of the disaster was "beyond the capacity of any one administration or government."
After inundating much of Pakistan's southwestern Baluchistan and eastern Punjab province, flash floods have also affected the southern Sindh province.
