남아시아 폭우 - 곳곳에서 피해속출 (E)


파키스탄에서 지난 이틀동안 내린 폭우로 28명이 숨졌습니다.

파키스탄의 스예드 아메드 보건장관은 대부분의 사망자들이 항구 도시 카라치에서 발생했다고 말했습니다.

방글라데시에서는 10일 최소한 16명이 물에 빠져 숨지거나 수인성 질병으로 숨졌습니다.

지난 6월 남아시아 지역에서 우기가 시작된 후 인도와 방글라데시, 네팔에서 약 2천명이 숨졌습니다.


Officials in Pakistan say 28 people have died in the aftermath of heavy rain storms over the past two days.

Health Minister Syed Sardar Ahmed says the majority of deaths took place in the port city of Karachi.

Ahmed says eight people died of electrocution and another 18 because of roof and wall collapses.

In Bangladesh, officials say drowning and disease killed at least 16 people Friday. Thousands more have been admitted to hospitals for severe diarrhea.

Nearly 2000 people have died in India, Bangladesh and Nepal since the monsoon rains began in mid-June, the vast majority in India.

Earlier this week, the United Nations warned of disease outbreaks in the region as rescue workers struggled to deliver food and water to an estimated 30 million people displaced by floods from the rain.
