Pakistan this summer has shocked the world. The flood once drowned 1/3 of the country's land area. It is difficult to imagine the "climate crisis, the number of floods and affected people is as high as tens of millions, millions of people are homeless, more than 16 million houses have been flooded, and a large number of farmland is overwhelmed. Fighting, so far many parts of the country are still anti -flood relief.

is not alone. The country's largest Danshui Lake Mancharhar (Lake of Mencore) is burst on September 6. Hundreds of villages were flooded.
Manchaer is Pakistan's largest freshwater lake. A lake around, the Karachi River, Lai The rivers such as the Sihe and the Dadu Yun River were injected into it.
The above picture is the satellite aerial map of satellite on June 25, August 28, and September 5 this year. It is the scene where the flood appears.
But this year, due to the heavy rainfall of Pakistan this year, the lake was full of overflowing, and the water storage capacity exceeded previous years. The flood resistance and drainage in the lake still continued to discharge floods to the lake, causing the water level to rise.
HTML On the 6th, the lake's wall (equivalent to the dam) cracking condition. Soon after the decision, a large number of lakes were diarrhea, and the lower reaches became a country.
But the lake in the lake is likely to be caused by intentional people, because local officials tried to destroy the lake's wall last weekend. The purpose was to use this method to release a large number of floods accumulated in the lake. So as not to cause accidents caused by the dike, residents in the town downstream of the lake are worried that the floods impact the town, so the wall is destroyed in the place far from the town and the flood is transferred elsewhere. Villagers in China have been evacuated and transferred in advance, so there are fewer casualties.
But the downstream of the lake is an important agricultural area in Pakistan. A large area of farmland will be harvested because of floods. More severe, disaster relief work is more difficult.
But the flood in this lake was released, and at the same time increased the pressure of flood resistance in the downstream. The destroyed by the wall will cause hundreds of millions of tons to pour in the downstream. Expedition to the lake, and the water in the lake will continue to flow, so there will be more and more floods in the downstream, but the gap in the wall of the wall will not be blocked in the short term. What is more terrible is that the weather forecast shows that Pakistan will come in the next month. There will still be more rainfall, so the floods in Pakistan are likely to be more serious.
