The death toll from floods in northwest Pakistan rose to 1,100 Sunday as rescuers struggled to save more than 27,000 people still trapped by the raging water.
"Aerial monitoring is being conducted, and it has shown that whole villages have washed away, animals have drowned and grain storages have washed away," said Latifur Rehman, spokesman for the Provincial Disaster Management Authority. "The destruction is massive."
Authorities have deployed 43 military helicopters and more than 100 boats to try to rescue some 27,300 people still trapped by the floods, said Mr. Rehman, the disaster management spokesman.
