The government takes citizens to safe areas when the water rises and cyclone Kyarr hits Karachi
Cyclone Kyarr has intensified in the Arabian Sea, which has caused high tides to hit Pakistan’s coastal areas. Seawater has reportedly affected nearly 200 homes near the Karachi coastal belt, as more than 500 people have been moved to safe areas. The Pakistan Department of Meteorology (PMD) issued a notice indicating that under the influence of Super Cyclone Kyarr, rain is expected in the lower parts of Sindh in the coming days. Some areas along the coast, especially the DHA Golf Club, have been flooded. PMD has also said that the cyclone will move to Oman in the coming days.
Let’s take a look at some of the photos and videos of seawater that violate coastal areas today:
