Naseerabad, Pakisatan News: Dadu city and adjoining villages have been inundated due to a breach in FP protective embankment. The breach is also threatening the Zamzma oil field located in the area. Flood waters can once again cause havoc in Warah city due to an increase in the water levels at Hamal Lake.
