The Pakistan Army has launched efforts to restore connectivity between Bajaur and Dir after the main bridge linking the two districts was swept away in floods.
Additional contingents have been deployed to Buner as part of ongoing rescue and relief operations in flood-affected districts.
The army teams, using the specialized equipment of the Army Corps of Engineers personnel, are working to recover injured individuals and retrieve bodies buried under mudslides.
The teams are actively engaged in relief activities, with helicopters delivering rations and essential supplies to stranded residents.
