Glacier Burst in Ghizer’s Talis Das Floods Villages in Gilgit-Baltistan; Mudslide Lake Raises Flood Threat

A glacier burst in the Talis Das area of Gupis, Ghizer District in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, has triggered severe flooding, submerging multiple villages and causing widespread damage. The floodwaters have inundated several rural communities, leading to ongoing destruction. Concurrently, a newly formed lake in Pakistan, created by a recent mountain mudslide, is raising concerns over potential catastrophic flooding. Authorities have urged local populations to remain vigilant as the situation develops. This event adds to the region's vulnerability to natural disasters, including deadly cloudbursts that have previously affected Pakistan.
