Jammu and Kashmir is battling one of the worst floods in decades 


More than 360 people have been killed during the floods, including 231 in Pakistan. 

More than 300,000 military personnel and 300 jets, choppers and boats have swarmed the northern state, rescuing more than 77,500 residents after a week of rain caused riverbanks to burst. 

Armies in both countries scramble to help the victims, while officials warn of more flooding to come. 

“The army will not move back to the barracks till the last man is brought to safety,” army chief Dalbir Singh said in an e-mailed statement yesterday.

Five days of heavy rain abated over the weekend, but flood waters in Srinagar rose dramatically overnight Saturday to Sunday.
Many people were caught unawares by the flood waters.
