Recovery is underway after deadly floods that claimed 1,559 lives in Pakistan. The floods, which left millions displaced, were followed by an outpouring of aid to the country. Türkiye, for its part, mobilized to help the affected.

Turkish Red Crescent teams endeavor to reach as many people as possible, though floodwaters still remain in some places.

By trucks or by boats, volunteers seek to address the basic needs of the displaced, including accommodation, food and hygiene.
