“After Maloran River in Sistan and Baluchestan Province flooded last night [February 3], the roads from the city of Nikshahr to more than 130 villages have been blocked,” announced Saheb Golsalehi, the Governor of Nikshahr in southeast of Iran.
According to a Farsi report by IRNA, he went on to say that the flood has entirely cut the links of 31,000 people to Nikshahr.
“The flood, resulted by last night rainfalls, has blocked the roads of Nikshahr to Fanuj and Bent,” Golsalehi added.
“Heavy road construction machines with healthcare and rescue teams are working at Maloran’s riversides to help and transfer the patients.”
