The death toll from monsoon rains and flash flooding in Pakistan over the past month surpassed 100 on Monday, as forecasters warned that more heavy rain was expected across the country later this week.
Pakistan's National Disaster Management Authority said 109 people have died nationwide since June 26.
Many of the deaths were caused by collapsing houses and roofs, with nearly half reported in the northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province along the Afghan border.
Rescue teams were seen pulling residents from flooded areas by boat and distributing food to those stranded. (Video courtesy of Associated Press)
