Pakistan braces for twin river floods as Chenab hits record flow, Ravi faces surge
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan braced for twin river floods on Friday as the Chenab swelled to one of its highest recorded levels and authorities warned of a looming surge in the Ravi, prompting mass evacuations, emergency breaches and the deployment of rescue teams across the eastern province of Punjab. The flooding, fueled by record monsoon rains and excess water released from upstream India, has created crisis conditions in the country’s most populous province, which is home to half the population of 240 million.
