- Many stranded in GB for six days as flood delays repairs
Residents and tourists in Gilgit-Baltistan remain stranded for six days due to climate change-fuelled floods and landslides, causing severe shortages of food, fuel, and medical supplies. Flooding has destroyed 130 homes, 20 bridges, and 18.2km of roads, with 89 flood-related incidents reported this monsoon. Key roads like the Baltistan Road and Hisper Road remain impassable, and repair efforts are stalled by rising waters.
