While its now traditional monsoon season for both India and Pakistan, the latter has been with historic flooding that will cost the country more than $10 billion in damages.

The BBC reports that "The flash floods, caused by record monsoon rains, have killed at least 1,136 people and affected more than 33 million, over 15% of the country's population. The torrential rains have also washed away roads, crops, homes, bridges and other infrastructure.

Mr Iqbal said the country would face serious food shortages in the coming weeks and months and believed that the floods were worse than those that hit Pakistan in 2010, the deadliest in the country's history which left more than 2,000 people dead.

He also called on richer countries to help Pakistan financially as he said it was a victim of climate change, which had been caused by the "irresponsible development of the developed world." For more, read the full BBC report.

This morning Apple's CEO responded to the flooding in a Tweet as presented below.

The floods in Pakistan and surrounding areas are devastating humanitarian disasters. Our thoughts are with those that have lost loved ones, the many displaced families, and all those affected. Apple will donate to relief and recovery efforts on the ground.
