As the 2025 monsoon floods continue to wreak havoc across Pakistan, Qatar Charity (QC) has announced plans for an urgent humanitarian response to support families in the hardest-hit regions. The unprecedented destruction, particularly in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Punjab, Pakistan-administered Jammu and Kashmir, and Sindh, has left thousands in desperate need. With the relentless rainfall since June 26 triggering flash floods, landslides, and widespread devastation, QC aims to ease the immediate challenges of displacement, food insecurity, and the loss of basic household necessities.

Key Takeaways:

  • QC's relief programme will provide dry food supplies, essential non-food items, and temporary shelter through tents for thousands of displaced individuals.
  • The floods have claimed 707 lives and injured 967 people, with 1,926 homes damaged, of which 1,012 were completely destroyed.
  • In addition to human casualties, 1,108 livestock deaths have further impacted livelihoods, and nearly 18,000 people have been evacuated.
  • QC is closely coordinating with the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and local authorities to align its interventions with national efforts.
  • Emergency teams are on standby, ready to deliver timely assistance once official calls for aid are made, ensuring rapid access to the most vulnerable families.
  • QC's strong commitment to humanitarian aid was evident during the 2022 Pakistan floods, when it partnered with Qatar Aid, Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD), and other donors to assist over 500,000 people, including Afghan refugees, across 18 districts.
