Monster Storm Kills more than 1,000 in Pakistan!

 More than 1,000 people have been killed and nearly one million homes have been damaged amid months of heavy rain.

One-third of Pakistan is completely underwater, with the nation's climate minister comparing it to "one big ocean".

Entire villages have been cut off as ferocious floodwaters wreak havoc on vital infrastructure, sweeping homes, crops and locals away.

Shocking footage captured the moment an entire building was washed away as a torrent of water topples it.

The two-storey structure in the south of the country was consumed by the deluge and reduced to rubble in under a minute.

The destructive storm has battered Pakistan since mid-June and has affected more than 33 million people.

Climate minister Sherry Rehman dubbed the deadly monsoon a "crisis of unimaginable proportions," as the death toll continues to climb.

She told AFP: "It's all one big ocean, there's no dry land to pump the water out.

"Literally, one-third of Pakistan is underwater right now, which has exceeded every boundary, every norm we've seen in the past.

"We've never seen anything like this."

All four of the country's provinces have been affected by the unusually heavy rain with the number of fatalities reported to be at least 1,136 people.

The dangerous conditions have also swept away villages, crops and 800,000 livestock.

Horrifying footage shows courageous rescuers using a bedframe to navigate across the water to safety.

And despite damaging nearly one million homes, experts have warned the "peak" may be yet to come.

Reports say that a third of the country could be flooded before rainwaters subside.

Locals living in rural and mountainous regions have been ordered to evacuate but thousands have been left stranded by the flash floods.

But aid workers have been struggling to land helicopters during rescues due to the complete lack of dry land.

Literally, one-third of Pakistan is underwater right now, which has exceeded every boundary, every norm we've seen in the past.

Makeshift camps have been set up across Pakistan for those who have been displaced.

International aid was delivered to the deluged nation on Monday while at least 6,500 soldiers have been drafted in to help civilian authorities in rescue and relief operations across the country.

The nation's planning minister has called on the world for help after estimating the fatal floods have cost them over £8.5billion already.

Ahsan Iqbal estimated it could take five years to rebuild and rehabilitate Pakistan after the unprecedented rainfall.

In their time of crisis, the country is even considering importing food from arch-rival India in anticipation of a catastrophic food shortage.

Last week, the United Nations said it had allocated £2.6 million for UN aid agencies and their partners in Pakistan to respond to the floods.

The UK government announced they had allocated up to £1.5million to aid flood relief efforts, as PM Boris Johnson said the horror weather was "heartbreaking".

The Queen earlier said she is "deeply saddened" by the widespread flooding that has claimed over one thousand lives.

In a message to the country's president, Arif Alvi, the Monarch said: "I am deeply saddened to hear of the tragic loss of life and destruction caused by the floods across Pakistan.

And Pakistan's climate minister, Sherry Rehman, said the country has suffered heavier rains this year mainly because of climate change.

Prime Minister Shabaz Sharif visited a number of flood-damaged areas in the country on Monday and maintained the government will provide housing for those who have lost their homes.

The International Monetary Fund board will decide this week whether to release £1billion as part of the seventh and eighth tranches of Pakistan's bailout programme, which it entered in 2019.
