Pakistan's monsoon death toll has passed 100, reaching 107 since the season opened on June 26, after ten more deaths in 24 hours — seven in Punjab and three in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The NDMA attributes the fatalities principally to house collapses, electrocution and drowning, and more rain is expected in the country's upper parts from July 29.
