Tragedy Strikes Swat River: Multiple Family Members Swept Away

A devastating incident occurred on Friday morning in the Swat River, where a sudden and forceful surge of water swept away at least 18 members of a single family. Rescue operations are currently underway.

To date, rescue teams have successfully saved three individuals and recovered the bodies of five victims.

Rescue personnel have indicated that the family, who came from Sialkot, was on a recreational outing. They were having breakfast near the riverbank when heavy rainfall upstream triggered an unexpected and rapid rise in the river’s water level.

The unfortunate event took place around 8:00 a.m., catching the visitors off guard and unaware of the impending danger.

This is an evolving situation, and further details will be provided as they become available.
