"Deadly Storms Claim Dozens of Lives in Pakistan"

Lightning and heavy rains have killed at least 36 people, mostly farmers, across Pakistan in the past three days, prompting authorities in the country's southwest to declare a state of emergency. The deaths occurred when lightning struck farmers harvesting wheat and rains caused houses to collapse in eastern Punjab province. The heavy April rainfall is unusual, with an environmental expert attributing it to climate change, which had also caused heavy flooding in 2022.
