Pakistan devastated after worst floods in history

The massive floods which are raging through north-western Pakistan have now killed at least one-thousand-one-hundred people. Emergency workers are struggling to save thousands of others who're still trapped. The situation's being made worse by water-borne disease, with some of those in rescue camps suffering with fever and skin problems. The UN estimates that about one-and-a-half million people are affected by the country's worst monsoon rains in memory.
