According to the National Weather Center, Pakistan has encountered its wettest April on record, with rainfall exceeding double the typical amount for the month. This extreme weather led to casualties, property damage, and agricultural losses across the country. Experts attribute the heavier rainfall to the effects of climate change.

The regions most affected by the intense downpours were the northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the southwestern Balochistan provinces.

During the peak of the floods, approximately a third of the country was submerged.
