Overview
- A mud or earthen roof gave way during a family gathering in Malagin on the outskirts of Kohat, killing 11 people and injuring 12.
- Rescue 1122 and local residents led search-and-rescue efforts using heavy equipment and hands-on digging to recover victims and free survivors.
- The 12 injured received first aid at the scene and were moved to nearby hospitals where medical teams continue to monitor their condition.
- The same heavy rains caused separate incidents across the region, including a wall collapse in Attock, flash flooding in Dera Ghazi Khan, and power outages in several districts.
- Poorly built earthen houses are especially vulnerable during Pakistan's monsoon season and this collapse highlights the urgent need for safer rural construction and faster emergency repairs by local authorities.
