Pakistan has restored 70% of electricity and reopened damaged roads in the north and northwest after flash floods killed more than 300 people.

The death toll in the flood-ravaged province of Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) has surged to 365, as torrential rains and flash floods continue to batter the region, with new casualties and destruction reported across several districts.

Pakistan has restored 70 percent of electricity service and reopened damaged roads in the north and northwest after flash floods killed more than 300 people, officials say. Information Minister Attaullah Tarar said on Tuesday that engineers were working to fully restore the electricity system that was knocked out by flooding last week.

Officials say rescuers have recovered dozens more bodies from the rubble of collapsed homes in a northwestern district of Pakistan, bringing the death toll to at least 274, as authorities defended their response to the flooding and said they did not need any foreign help at this point.
