Massive flash floods in Pakistan monsoon season, 2022 (video screenshot)
(ISRAB NEWS) – Swaths of the country are now under water, after United Nations officials described it as a “monsoon on steroids” that brought the heaviest rains in living memory and floods that killed 1,162 people, injured 3,554 and affected 33. million since mid-June.
The new images, taken on August 28 by NASA’s MODIS satellite sensor, show how a combination of heavy rain and an overflowing Indus River have flooded much of Sindh province in the south.
In the center of the image, a large dark blue area shows the Indus overflowing and flooding an area about 100 kilometers (62 miles) wide, turning what were once agricultural fields into a giant inland lake.
