Pakistan is grappling with its worst flooding in living memory. An estimated one-third of the country is underwater. Airlink is supporting our partners responding in the region by providing airlift resources for critical emergency supplies. The most critical needs are currently food, shelter, mosquito nets, safe drinking water, access to water, sanitation, and hygiene services, and healthcare.
An estimated one-third of the country is underwater, with more than 30 million people affected over the last few weeks. So far, at least 1,100 civilians have been killed as a direct result of the flooding, and almost half a million people have sought refuge in relief camps. Humanitarian relief has started to arrive in the country, but efforts are hampered by extensive infrastructural damage, with over 3,000 miles of roads and 150 bridges having been affected.
Airlink is supporting our partners responding in the region by providing airlift resources for critical emergency supplies and logistical. This includes working with them to gather the most up-to-date information on potential cargo/ customs clearance restrictions and challenges for delivering aid to the communities in need.
Flooding often generates several worrying knock-on disasters, not least is the ability of impacted populations to access clean water. The World Health Organization has warned that millions of Pakistanis are now at risk of waterborne disease. Airlink is working with our network of partners to provide airlift for the first waves of responding NGOs and coordinate and consult with the disaster response sector to determine airlift in the short, medium, and, inevitably, the long term.
