Addressing the House of Representatives on Wednesday, Prime Minister Shah said the scale of the disaster was beyond anything previously experienced.

“It is a major event that human civilization has experienced. This disaster occurred without prior information,” he said.

“Those who were working after receiving information about the flood are also missing,” he said.
