ISLAMABAD - Prime Minister Imran Khan has extended humanitarian assistance to India after floods wreak havoc in its Kerala state.

Extending offer, the Prime Minister said, “We stand ready to provide any humanitarian assistance that may be needed.”
The monsoon floods have left more than 420 dead since June with some 1.34 million people now in over 3300 relief camps across the state of Kerala.
Thousands of army, navy and air force personnel fanned out across the state to help those stranded in remote and hilly areas.
Dozens of helicopters and even drones have dropped food, medicine and water to cut-off villages in the last few days.
Tens of thousands of people across the state are still relying on community kitchens for meals.
