The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) on Saturday warned of rising flood risks across several parts of Pakistan as monsoon rains continued to swell rivers and streams, with medium-level flooding reported at key points along the Chenab River. According to the NDMA’s National Emergencies Operation Centre (NEOC), medium-level flooding was recorded at Khanki, Qadirabad and Chiniot Bridge on the Chenab River, while the Palkhu Nala at Wazirabad was also flowing at medium flood level. Low-level flooding persists at Kalabagh, Chashma and Taunsa on the Indus River, Marala and Trimmu on the Chenab River, Balloki and Sidhnai on the Ravi River, and Nowshera on the Kabul River. Low flood conditions were also reported at Nala Aik and Palkhu Nala Cantonment Bridge. The authority said water flows in the Chenab River were expected to increase further over the next 24 hours at Marala, Khanki, Qadirabad and Chiniot Bridge. Water levels at Trimmu Barrage were also likely to rise to the medium flood level during the same period. The NDMA also warned of possible flash floods in the hill torrents of Dera Ghazi Khan, seasonal streams in KP and parts of northern Balochistan over the next 24 to 48 hours. Urban flooding risks have also been forecast for Gujranwala, Mandi Bahauddin, Sialkot, Narowal, Faisalabad, Sargodha, Jhang, Multan, Hafizabad and Lahore as heavy monsoon rains continue. The authority advised the public to avoid unnecessary travel to flood-affected areas and urged motorists to check weather forecasts and road conditions before setting out. The NDMA directed all relevant departments to maintain continuous monitoring of vulnerable locations, keep emergency response teams on standby and ensure the immediate restoration of roads in case of closures. The authority also cautioned that landslides, debris flows and sudden flash floods remained a major threat in mountainous regions during the monsoon season. Citizens were advised not to stop near riverbanks, steep slopes or narrow mountain passages vulnerable to rockfalls and landslides. People were also urged not to cross flooded roads, streams or fast-moving water on foot or in vehicles, with a warning that even shallow flowing water could sweep away people and vehicles. The NDMA has placed all provincial and district authorities on alert and advised citizens to stay updated through the Pak NDMA Disaster Alert mobile application for timely warnings and emergency information.

**• Flood Forecasting Division warns flows may rise further by July 25 amid new monsoon spell • Urban flooding likely in parts of Punjab, KP and Balochistan** LAHORE: The Chenab River continued to remain in a high-flood state on Thursday as torrential rains lashed held Kashmir and several parts of Punjab. “The water level in the Chenab River at Marala and Khanki has subsided to medium flood. However, the river is flowing in high flood at Qadirabad and Chiniot Bridge. It is expected to subside by the time it reaches Trimmu Headworks after passing Chiniot Bridge,” a senior irrigation department official told _Dawn_. “This is according to a fresh report issued on Thursday evening,” he added. However, he warned of a possible rise in the river’s water level again at Marala if rains continued in held Kashmir. “Rains are still continuing in parts of held Kashmir. We will receive Thurs­day’s report from held Kashmir on Friday (today). Let’s see what happens,” he added. According to the Flood Forecasting Division (FFD) of the Pakistan Meteo­rological Department, the Chenab River at Khanki and Qadirabad is in high flood, while it is in medium flood at Marala. “The Indus River at Tarbela and Chashma, the Kabul River at Nowshera, the Chenab River at Chiniot bridge and the Ravi River at Balloki are in low flood. All other major rivers are flowing at normal levels at other gauging stations,” the FFD said in its daily report. **Warning** However, it stated that scattered to widespread rain, accompanied by wind and thunderstorms with isolated heavy to very heavy falls, was expected over the catchments of all major rivers due to a westerly weather system coupled with strong monsoon currents deflected from the Bay of Bengal. “Consequently, river flows are likely to increase significantly up to July 25,” it warned. The FFD also predicted flash flooding in the hill torrents of Dera Ghazi Khan, streams in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and northern Balochistan. It also warned of urban flooding in Rawalpindi, Lahore, Gujranwala, Mandi Bahauddin, Sialkot, Narowal, Sargodha, Faisalabad, Okara and Sahiwal. For the next 24 hours, the FFD forecast widespread rain, wind and thunderstorms, with isolated heavy to very heavy falls over the upper catchments of all major rivers, Islamabad and Kashmir. It also predicted similar weather conditions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Abb­o­ttabad, Bajaur, Bannu, Batagram, Buner, Charsadda, Dera Ismail Khan, Hangu, Haripur, Karak, Khyber, Kohat, Kurram, Lakki Marwat, Mansehra, Mardan, Moh­mand, Waziristan, Nowshera, Orakzai, Pe­­shawar, Shangla, Swabi, Swat, Tank and Dir. The FFD also forecast similar weather conditions in Punjab’s Rawalpindi, Atto­­ck, Bahawalnagar, Bahawalpur, Chiniot, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Gujrat, Hafiz­abad, Jhelum, Kasur, Lahore, Lodhran, Mandi Bahauddin, Nankana Sahib, Narowal, Okara, Pakpattan, Rahim Yar Khan, Sahiwal, Sargodha, Sheikhupura, Sialkot, Toba Tek Singh and Vehari. It added that similar weather conditions were likely in Sindh’s Badin, Mirpu­rkhas, Sanghar, Tharparkar and Umer­kot, and Balochistan’s Qila Saifullah, Loralai, Musakhel, Sherani and Zhob. Meanwhile, regarding water levels and live storage in major reservoirs, Wapda’s daily report said Tarbela Dam had a water level of 1,519.11 feet with live storage of 3.891 million acre feet (MAF). Mangla Dam’s water level stood at 1,183.90 feet with live storage of 3.297 MAF, while Chashma Lake had a water level of 645.50 feet and live storage of 0.157 MAF on Thursday. _Published in Dawn, July 24th, 2026_
