The Rescue 1122 said that one person was killed when a house collapsed in Achini Bala area on the outskirts of the provincial capital. Roof of a mosque also caved in on Warsak Road while current spell of the monsoon also caused damage to houses in different localities. The rainwater entered houses and inundated shops in low lying areas of the city and also submerged parts of University Road, Kohat Road and streets in Hayatabad. The Budhni Nullah and Nasar Bagh Nullah were in medium flood and authorities asked the people living in low lying areas alongside the nullahs to evacuate their houses and shift to safer places. All water courses and streams around Peshawar were overflowing due to heavy rain which disrupted vehicular traffic. Provincial Disaster Management Authority, quoting provincial irrigation department, said that all major rivers were flowing normal.
