Gwadar Floods (March 2024)

Table of Contents

What is happening?

Heavy flash floods have struck Gwadar and surrounding areas in Balochistan, one of the worst since 2010. Gwadar and Ormara are cut-off from Karachi as the road and bridges were swept away by the floods. BYAC and other not-for-profits are on ground providing relief to the community who are still submerged in water.  Immediate assistance is requested to address the urgent needs of affected communities and to support recovery efforts.
