Islamabad : Almost seventy percent of the water has flown out of Shisper Glacier Lake in Hunza with an average flow of 750,000 cubic feet, posing grave threats to the downstream localities in the area.
According to the Disaster Management Authority of Gilgit-Baltistan, the remaining water of the lake would be released within a week as the temperature is continuously increasing with each passing day.
As part of the contingent plan, the local administration has closed the Karakoram Highway at Hassanabad where the bridge connecting main roads is quite vulnerable to increasing water levels.
