Pakistan has received a $6 million grant from China to help rebuild homes destroyed by floods in Balochistan, state media reported on Tuesday. The ongoing monsoon rains have killed 802 people and injured 1,088 nationwide, including 24 fatalities in Balochistan since June 26.
According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), 30 houses have been completely destroyed and 145 partially damaged in the province during this monsoon season.
“The monthly foreign economic assistance report for July 2025 shows that China’s $6 million grant has been disbursed,” the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) reported.
The aid will provide displaced families with durable housing solutions and is part of China’s broader support to Pakistan, which also includes funding for infrastructure, energy, and scientific research.
Khurram Shehzad, adviser to Pakistan’s finance minister, said China’s assistance highlights its commitment to strengthening infrastructure and housing in the country’s most vulnerable areas.
China has previously aided Pakistan following floods with grants, relief supplies and reconstruction support.
The two countries are close allies and have been jointly working on multibillion-dollar energy and infrastructure development projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
