The Pakistani authorities announced that the death toll from the torrential rains that swept the northwestern regions of the country, which led to the collapse of several houses, increased, leaving 25 dead and 145 injured.
And the American “ABC News” network reported today, Sunday, that the rains hit the areas of “Bannu”, “Laki Marwat” and “Karak” in the province of “Khyber Pakhtunkhwa”, and caused the uprooting of trees and the destruction of electricity transmission towers.
