PAKISTAN has reached out to donors, friendly countries and international financial institutions for assistance to respond to flood calamity.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif said on Friday that flooding had caused devastation across the country.
“The losses, though yet to be documented, are comparable to the flash floods of 2010,” he added.
As part of the country’s efforts to mobilise resources, Sharif said that he met Islamabad-based ambassadors, high commissioners and senior members of the diplomatic corps to tell them about the situation.
“We are grateful to the international community for sympathies, condolences and pledges for support,” the prime minister said. (Xinhua/NAN)
