In a shocking development, authorities in Pakistan have declared an emergency after India abruptly released a large volume of water into the Jhelum River. The sudden surge has raised serious concerns of flooding in several areas across Azad Jammu and Kashmir and parts of Punjab.
According to initial reports, water levels in the river are rising rapidly, prompting evacuations in low-lying areas. Rescue teams have been deployed, and citizens living near the riverbanks are being urged to move to safer locations immediately.
Officials warn that if the inflow continues at the current rate, critical infrastructure and agricultural lands could be severely affected. Efforts are underway to monitor the situation closely, and emergency control rooms have been activated to coordinate relief operations.
