IRCS voice readiness to send relief aid to flood-stricken people in Pakistan

Head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) Pirhossein Koulivand has offered to dispatch emergency medical and relief teams to help individuals affected by floods in Pakistan, where catastrophic monsoon rains have killed hundreds in recent days.

In a message sent on Saturday to Farzhana Naek, the Chairperson of the Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS), Koulivand expressed sincere condolences on behalf of the IRCS to PRCS and the families of the victims.

“We stand with you in this difficult time. We are ready to send medical and relief teams to assist humanitarian operations,” he added.

According to reports from Pakistan’s disaster management authority, at least 320 people have died in northern Pakistan in the past 48 hours due to the severe flooding.

Among the fatalities, 307 occurred in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which has been hit hardest due to its mountainous terrain.

Additionally, nine individuals lost their lives in Pakistan-administered Kashmir and five in Gilgit-Baltistan.
