Un uomo cerca salvezza dalla alluvioni su un gommone a Kabal, Pakistan

A flood victim uses a tyre tube as he transports Ice cubes to other side of the river after floods washed away bridges, in Kabal in Swat valley Pakistan on 17 August 2010. More than 1500 people across Pakistan have been killed and hundreds of thousands stranded due to flash floods triggered by the ongoing spell of monsoon rains. The worst floods the country has faced in several decades washed away millions of hectares of crops, submerged villages and destroyed roads and bridges in the north-western province of KhyberPakhtunkhwa, parts of the Pakistan-administered Kashmir region and the eastern province of Punjab.
