This is the Guardian.

Today,

Pakistan is being devastated by floods on a scale never seen before.

We find out what it's like on the ground.

It began with an excruciating heat wave in May, with temperatures soaring to more than 50 degrees.

The summer heat wave that's come months earlier than usual has been melting glaciers in the Himalayas.

This is causing flooding that's collapsing some bridges in Pakistan.

And the Indus River, which runs the length of the country from north to south,

began to swell far beyond its banks.

There were flash floods.

These are desperate scenes as people hold on to ropes to reach safety.

And by June, the monsoon season had arrived abnormally early, bringing the heaviest rains in a decade.

We know that the Prime Minister has called these floods the worst in the history of his country.

We know every province has been affected.

Entire villages were destroyed.

Buildings collapsed.

32-year-old student, Naroos Jamali, who lives in Islamabad, saw what was happening.

And he feared for his family and his home village of Gandhaka in the Jaffaabad district.

He went back to volunteer.

When you look from a height,

till your horizon, you just see water and water.

And this water is following you every year.
