1:01Now PlayingPakistan’s unprecedented flooding has forced nearly half a million people to leave their homes and move into relief camps as international aid starts to trickle in to help the South Asian nation already battling an economic crisis.
At least 498,000 people are currently in temporary shelters after swirling waters either engulfed or damaged over a million homes, 3,500 kilometers (2,174.8 miles) of roads and 162 bridges, according to the country’s National Disaster Management Authority. That prompted the United Nations and Islamabad to jointly appeal for $160 million in aid to help the victims with supplies such as tents and mosquito nets, Radio Pakistan reported.
