Incident Report Description

It appears that the second flood wave has not really reached Sukkur as yet. However, Dawn this morning reports that: “…residents of Qubo Saeed Khan town and over 100 villages in Qambar-Shahdadkot district were asked to leave their homes on Monday after a powerful current of floodwaters gushing from Garhi Khairo and overtopping the Khirthar canal smashed five gates of the Garang regulator and washed away the entire structure.”
