The Karachi administration has decided to close all public and private schools on Friday (tomorrow) as more rain was expected due to a potential cyclone over the Rann of Kutch in India that was likely to emerge along the Sindh coast late tonight or tomorrow morning.

This decision was made by the district administration in response to ongoing circumstances affecting the city. Parents and students are advised to take note of the closure and plan accordingly.

According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department, the rainfall would continue until August 31.

The authorities have also warned of flash floods in two districts of Sindh, which is still recovering from the massive floods of 2022 which inundated large swathes of the country and damaged the economy.
