      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330432479/heavy-rains-forecast-across-pakistan-ndma-issues-flash-flood-alert</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) on Monday predicted another spell of widespread rains across the country, while the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) issued a high alert for torrential rains and flash floods over the next 12 to 24 hours.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the PMD, heavy showers are expected in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and several districts of Punjab.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Downpours are also forecast in Dir, Swat, and Mansehra.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Sindh, rainfall is likely in Sanghar, Ghotki, Tharparkar, and Umerkot, while Zhob, Musakhel, and Barkhan in Balochistan are also expected to receive rain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan, partly cloudy skies are expected with chances of rain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PMD warned of potential landslides in hilly regions, including Murree, Galiyat, and Kashmir, along with the risk of flooding in streams and low-lying areas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The NDMA has issued a specific alert for Azad Kashmir, forecasting heavy downpours in Neelum Valley, Muzaffarabad, Bagh, Haveli, and Kotli.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The authority cautioned that flash floods could hit urban and rural low-lying areas, while landslides may disrupt mountainous regions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Residents living near rivers and streams have been advised to remain vigilant, and citizens have been urged to avoid unnecessary travel during the forecast period.&lt;/p&gt;
