President Ashraf Ghani during a trip to Parwan province on Thursday pledged to restore infrastructure in the flood-damaged areas of the province.

Last week flash floods hit 15 provinces in Afghanistan, and Parwan was the hardest hit. By the latest count, the floods killed 250 people across the country and injured 300 others, according to Afghan government numbers.

Ghani met those residents affected by the floods and promised to address their needs.
