Extra Pakistan Flood Aid Promised
The BBC reports on the latest round of aid being pledged to help Pakistan deal with its flood situation:
More aid pledges for Pakistan have come through after complaints that the international community's response to the devastating floods was inadequate.
The European Union promised an extra $39m following higher commitments from Australia and Japan, while the Islamic Development Bank pledged $11.2m.
The UN has said it has now raised nearly half of the $460m (£295m) it needs for initial relief efforts.
Meanwhile new flood warnings have been issued in some areas of Pakistan.
Pakistani authorities say as many as 20 million people are affected by the floods. The UN says six million desperately need emergency aid but most still have not received it. Tens of thousands of villages remain under water.
