| Hundreds flee Pakistan floods |
| Hundreds of people loaded down with possessions were fleeing floods in Pakistan's most populous province Thursday as the worst monsoon rains in a generation triggered fresh chaos.
Floods have already killed more than 1,500 people in Pakistan over the last week and affected some 3 million others.
They followed the crash of a passenger jet last week close to the capital and have coincided with deadly riots in the country's largest city, Karachi. On Wednesday, a suicide bomber killed a paramilitary police commander in the northwest, a reminder of the country's ever-present terror threat
