#ClimateChange and anthropogenic nature destruction in the name of "development" continue to wreck havoc across the most vulnerable areas first.

And by that I mean mountainous communities in the vicinity of melting #Glaciers. If you live in the Alps or any area classed as a mountain range, I'd be packing up to move to flatter terrain outside flood zones at the foothills.

GILGIT: Landslides continued to affect many areas of Gilgit-Baltistan on Tuesday, even as the weather improved after four days of intermittent rain and snowfall. With climate change making weather patterns erratic, the mountainous region received heavy rainfall and snowfall during months when the weather is relatively better. On Tuesday, landslides occurred in Chichala village in Deral valley of Diamer, according to police. The falling rocks damaged a home, livestock shelters, trees and other properties. Landslides also damaged many connecting roads in  the region.

The Chipurson Road in upper Hunza was blocked due to landslides, cutting off locals’ access to other parts of the region. Police said the Karakoram Highway, Baltistan Road and other major roads have been opened for traffic on Tuesday after landslides blocked the roads. Internet and mobile services and electricity supply also remained suspended in many areas, particularly in Ghizer and Ghanche. Locals have urged the immediate restoration of electricity and communication services. In Astore, landslides damaged electricity transmission lines. Adqil Hussain Bagiri, a local resident told Dawn that residents in upper areas of Astore were facing difficultes after snowfall and rain. He said families in Daskhrim village were living under the open sky as several houses were partially damaged after snowfall and rain. Locals have urged the government to provide shelter and rehabilitation to the affected ‘people of Daskhrim.Earlier on Monday, a foreign tourist was killed another injured as falling rocks during a landslide hit their vehicle in Ghanche.

In Skardu, a mother and her two daughters were seriously injured when a landslide hit their home.

Minister’s visit

Federal Minister for Climate Change Senator Mosaddiq Malik and other offifieals of the Ministry of Climate Change visited Shigar with a UNDP delegation to review the newly installed early warning system.

According to a statement, the minister reviewed losses caused to the local population due to the melting of glaciers and the bursting of glacial lakes.

Baltistan Division Commissioner Kamal Khan, Shigar Deputy Commissioner Waliullah Falahi and Gilgit-Baltistan Disaster Management Authority Director General Zakir Hussain briefed the delegation on various projects.
