Putin offers condolences to Zardari as Pakistan reels from deadly northern floods
ISLAMABAD: Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed condolences to his Pakistani counterpart Asif Ali Zardari on Saturday over the loss of life from recent flooding, state media reported, as monsoon rains triggered flash floods and hill torrents, submerging towns across northern Pakistan. Putin’s message came as Pakistan’s monsoon death toll surged to 645 since late June, with 332 people killed in just the past two days amid continuing rains in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir. Pakistan and Russia, once Cold War rivals, have deepened cooperation in recent years.
