General Officer Commanding (GOC) Major General Shoukat Iqbal has said that Sindh would face a super flood, which would be a test for us also. He was expressing his views at a briefing given by the district administration. The GOC said that river embankment had not been given due attention as no floods had come since last several years.
He said that embankments are weak, vulnerable and sensitive at many sites while breaches could not be ruled out at different location, however Pakistan Army would remain alert to face any situation, he added.
