Continuous heavy rainfall has caused widespread damage in parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, leaving at least two people dead and several injured, as infrastructure and daily life were severely disrupted.
In Haripur, three days of persistent rain led to roof collapses, uprooted trees, and flooding in low-lying areas.
In Tehsil Khanpur, multiple homes were damaged, while one person was killed after a wall collapsed in an Afghan refugee camp. Another fatality occurred when a falling tree struck a resident, leaving four others injured.
Flooded streets resembled ponds, while landslides blocked key roads. Water inflows into the Tarbela Dam have also increased due to continuous rainfall.
In Kurram District, heavy rains disrupted daily life, injuring at least 15 people in separate incidents, including house collapses. Floodwaters swept away link roads, and a key bridge on the route connecting Peshawar to Parachinar partially collapsed, suspending traffic.
Local authorities said restoration work has begun, but is being hampered by strong water flows. Officials added that full rehabilitation would begin once water levels receded.
