      <title>NDMA warns of thunderstorms, hail and flash flood risk across Pakistan</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330458141/ndma-warns-of-thunderstorms-hail-and-flash-flood-risk-across-pakistan</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has issued an alert of thunderstorms and hail in several parts of the country over the next 12 to 24 hours.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Citizens have been advised to take precautionary measures due to the possibility of strong winds, landslides and flooding.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the NDMA, rain and hail are expected in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Gilgit-Baltistan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rain with strong winds and thunderstorms has been forecast in multiple districts of Punjab, including Islamabad, Murree, Lahore, and Sialkot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thunderstorms are also expected in several areas of Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, most districts, including Chitral, Swat, Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat, Bannu, and Dera Ismail Khan, may experience hail with strong winds and rain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The NDMA has also warned of a risk of flash floods and landslides due to rising temperatures and glacier melt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Strong winds and hail may damage fragile structures, solar panels and vehicles, while travel in mountainous areas could be affected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Citizens have been instructed to avoid unnecessary travel and follow weather advisories.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if relevant information is added, no additional verified external facts have been introduced; this is a straight rephrasing of the provided advisory.&lt;/p&gt;
