According to the NDMA report, the heavy monsoon rains over the past few days have caused flooding and damage throughout the country.

The report shows that by the first week of September 2020, 249 died, and thousands of homes were washed away by the floods.

Karachi, a metropolis with more than 20 million inhabitants, is one of the areas worst affected by the disaster.

Al-Harthi stressed that the humanitarian response came within the efforts of the Humanitarian League to stand by the needy around the world after making coordination with the relevant government agencies in each country.

The MWL emphasizes that the organization does not see differences in religion, race or background in carrying out its missions.

Its assistance and services are provided to all people in need, and this reflects the Islamic teaching in the humanitarian dimension.
