BREAKING NEWS: Over 33 Million People in a Moment of Time Without a Place to Live; Over 1,000 Dead and Counting Due to Horrific Floods That Seemingly Had a Mind of Their Own; Terrifying Torrents of Water Are Filmed Wiping Village Away After Monsoon Hits Pakistan

More than 1,000 people have died and millions displaced as massive flooding engulfs Pakistan.

Officials say this year’s monsoon flooding has affected more than 33 million people — one in seven Pakistanis — destroying or badly damaging nearly a million homes.

The country’s climate minister called the deadly monsoon season a ‘serious climate catastrophe’ while army chiefs called the disaster ‘unprecedented’.

Incredible video showed the unstoppable current of floodwater washing away entire villages — and a daring army helicopter rescue to save stranded people moments before they are swept away.

‘I haven’t seen destruction of this scale, I find it very difficult to put into words… it is overwhelming,’ said Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari in an interview with Reuters.
