Pakistan is appealing for further international assistance after floods wreaked havoc across the country.
The US, UK, United Arab Emirates and others have contributed to a monsoon disaster appeal but much more funds are needed, an interior ministry official told the BBC.
More than 1,000 people have died and millions have been displaced since June, Salman Sufi said.
He said Pakistan’s government was doing everything in its power to help people.
In the north-west of the country, thousands of people fled their homes after rivers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province burst their banks, causing powerful flash floods.
“The house which we built with years of hard work started sinking in front of our eyes,” Junaid Khan, 23, told AFP news agency. “We sat on the side of the road and watched our dream house sinking.”
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Sufi said the country was in desperate need of more international support.
“Pakistan has been grappling with economic issues but now just when we were about to overcome them the monsoon disaster hit,” he said.
Funding from a lot of development projects had been rerouted to the affected people, he added.
