Karachi, Pakistan's largest city, faced a devastating storm that struck on Wednesday night, leading to at least 15 deaths and injuring many others. Emergency services reported that walls and roofs collapsed in various areas of the city, contributing to the casualties. The deceased have been taken to hospital morgues as the situation remains critical for those injured, with many requiring hospital care.

The storm, characterized by heavy rainfall and strong winds, began affecting the city in the late evening and persisted through the night. There were widespread disturbances caused by uprooted trees blocking roads, which severely impacted traffic movements across Karachi. The emergency services have been active in response to the immediate needs prompted by the storm's impact.

Meteorologists have warned that the severe weather may not be over, as there is a likelihood of thunderstorms with strong winds and possibly hail continuing in the coming days. This prediction raises concerns about further repercussions in a city already struggling with infrastructure challenges during severe weather events.
