Many stranded in GB for six days as flood delays repairs

The prolonged blockade has left vulnerable populations in remote areas facing severe shortages of food, fuel and medical care, while tourists are trapped with dwindling resources. “Each passing day creates troubles for local residents,” Ali Hussain, a Skardu resident, told Dawn.
