The patients were initially treated by the rescue agency and later taken to Lady Reading Hospital for treatment.

The political administration and local sources said the downpour took place in Gabari, in Bajaur Agency along the Pak-Afghan border. Murad, 8, Umair, 5, and Irshad, 3, were among the dead, while 10-year-old Faizur Rehman and Rahmat, 15, were injured.
