A woman and her son were killed in Islamabad on Wednesday as several areas of the federal capital experienced urban flooding after a cloudburst caused heavy rainfall, a private TV channel reported.
According to the affected family, four children and their mother drowned when a nearby drain overflowed and water entered their house in Islamabad’s Sector E-11. They said that the administration rescued three children while one child and the mother died. An uncle of the deceased child said water entered their house at around 6am due to which a wall in the backyard collapsed. “Water accumulated in the basement of the house, drowning five members of the family, including four kids.” He said they started rescue efforts on their own while the administration reached the area after 8:30am.
