The Indus River continues to swell, with water levels at Kotri Barrage reaching a medium flood stage, while Guddu and Sukkur barrages remain in low flood.
Floodwaters have inundated low-lying areas of Sehwan and Manjhand, spreading into dozens of villages and forcing residents to evacuate. Water has also reached both sides of the railway track, sparking concerns over possible damage.
According to the barrage control room:
- Kotri Barrage: Inflow has surged to 407,214 cusecs with an outflow of 380,159 cusecs.
