The Pakistan Army has launched rescue operations in the northern areas after heavy rains caused flooding and landslides, leaving many tourists stranded. The rainfall damaged roads, blocked travel routes, and cut off communication in several areas popular with visitors.
Tourists, including families and children, were stuck in remote locations with limited access to food, water, and medical help. The situation became worse as more rain continued, making rescue work more difficult. In response, the Pakistan Army quickly sent teams to help those trapped and to reopen blocked roads.
Soldiers used heavy machines to clear landslides and remove debris from roads. Helicopters were also used to airlift people from dangerous areas. Medical teams were sent to provide care to the injured, while food and water were delivered to those waiting for help.
Officials said that the rescue work is ongoing and more support is being sent to affected areas. They also warned travelers to avoid going to the northern regions until the weather improves and roads are safe again.
The army’s quick response has been praised by many across the country. Thanks to their efforts, hundreds of people have already been rescued. However, the weather is still uncertain, and authorities are closely watching the situation to prevent further problems.
