Banned jihadist teams are delivering help within the area, and locals indignant at inaction on local weather change could also be prone to their ideology.

As devastating floods and a political disaster grip Pakistan, it now faces the rise of extremists posing as charities to supply help and doubtlessly recruit followers in flood-affected areas.

Consultants and journalists report a revival of banned jihadist extremist teams after the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, and so they’re concentrating on determined communities. 

To this point they make up a tiny fraction of these delivering help to the area, and their affect is small. However amid rising anti-American ideology and as Pakistanis blame rich, high-emissions nations for the floods, there’s a danger extra might be swept up in extremism — doubtlessly inflicting additional instability.
