A huge relief operation was under way Monday and international aid began trickling in as Pakistan struggled to deal with monsoon flooding that has killed more than 1,000 people and affected more than 33 million in the South Asian nation.
Officials said 1,136 people have died in Pakistan since June when the seasonal rains began, but the final flood death toll could be higher as hundreds of villages in the mountainous north have been cut off by flood-swollen rivers washing away roads and bridges.
