Iran’s Foreign Ministry has expressed readiness to provide humanitarian aid to neighboring Pakistan after flash floods caused by intense monsoon rains killed at least 344 people and left more than 150 missing.

In an official statement on Sunday, the Iranian Foreign Ministry conveyed its sympathies to the Pakistani government and people, particularly the families affected by the widespread devastation.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran offers its sympathy and condolences on behalf of the Iranian government and people to the brotherly and neighboring country of Pakistan,” the statement read.

The Foreign Ministry's statement also expressed hope for the swift recovery of all those injured in the disaster.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran is ready to provide any cooperation and assistance to alleviate the suffering of the victims," the statement concluded.

Similarly, on Saturday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian sent a message to Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, expressing the Iranian government’s “sincere sympathy” over the tragic loss of life and injuries caused by the flooding.

The message underlined Iran’s readiness to support Pakistan with potential aid packages and relief efforts in response to the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

The majority of deaths occurred in the mountainous Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, according to Pakistan's National Disaster Management Authority. Additionally, nine fatalities were reported in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, while six people died in Gilgit-Baltistan.

The floods, driven by the annual monsoon season, have caused widespread destruction across northern Pakistan, damaging homes, roads, and infrastructure, and displacing thousands of families.

Pakistan is enduring one of its deadliest monsoon seasons in recent years, with rising casualties and continued risk of flash floods. Government and rescue teams are working to locate the missing and provide relief to affected communities.

Iran’s offer of humanitarian aid underscores growing regional solidarity as countries in South and Central Asia face increasingly extreme weather events driven by climate change.
