10 found dead as Karachi endures ‘hottest day in eight years’ - Pakistan

Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah expressed regret over the loss of lives in Karachi due to extreme weather conditions and directed the city administration to identify the deceased and trace their heirs. At least 10 people died from heatstroke, with seven unidentified victims found across various areas of the city. The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) reported a temperature of 44.1°C on Monday, the highest since 2018, attributed to prolonged westerly winds that persisted throughout the day. K-Electric faced criticism for excessive loadshedding and water shortages continued in Karachi despite the intense heat.
