Karachi faces severe water crisis after major supply lines burst

Pakistan's Karachi is facing a severe water crisis, as supply has remained suspended for six days after a major power failure at the Dhabeji pumping station. Water supply has been disrupted in areas including Korangi, Landhi, Liaquatabad, Nazimabad and Malir after three main transmission lines burst. The normal water supply will resume 24 hours after repairs are completed, officials said.
