At least 10 flood victims, including children, were killed when three boats capsized in Pakistan’s Punjab province during a rescue operation, an official said on Friday. According to an official of the Punjab Emergency Services Rescue 1122, a massive evacuation is underway in south Punjab as floodwater submerged hundreds of villages there. “During an evacuation operation, three boats near Multan and Bahawalnagar capsized, resulting in the death of 10 flood victims, including children. However, the rescuers saved 40 others from drowning,” he said. Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari said on Thursday that 78 people were killed in flood-related incidents in the province since August 23.
