Officials say at least 50 people have been killed by lightning and heavy rains across Pakistan in the last four days.
Authorities in the country’s southwest declared a state of emergency yesterday, as some deaths occurred when lightning struck farmers harvesting wheat.
Rains caused dozens of houses to collapse in the northwest and in eastern Punjab province.
The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) asked emergency services to remain vigilant with millions under threat for severe storms.
