More than 1000 people died in the floods this summer in Pakistan.
Hundreds of thousands have had to leave their homes, and many of them have nowhere to return to, as the heavy rain swept away their houses.
The country’s prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif is seeking international assistance, as the annual monsoon is causing devastating damages across the country.
