In a proactive move, Pakistani authorities have activated the National Emergencies Operation Centre (NEOC) to prepare for imminent monsoon-related emergencies. According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), heavy rains are forecast to hit Punjab and Sindh, with potential severe flooding.
The NDMA reports significant cloud activity from the eastern Indian side, predicting substantial rainfall and flooding in key river catchments, including the Sutlej, Ravi, and Chenab. Water levels are expected to reach concerning levels by early July.
Officials are urging the public to prepare for potential evacuations and to avoid unnecessary travel. Coordination between federal and provincial departments is ongoing to ensure effective response efforts for the anticipated crises.
