Azad Kashmir blocked due to snowfall

Roads in Azad Kashmir’s Sargan, Neelam and Shonthar valley have been blocked due to week-long snowfall and light rain.

The road that connects Leepa valley to the rest of Kashmir has been closed for traffic as well. The temperature dropped to 6 degrees centigrade, on Friday.

It will get much colder in the coming days across Pakistan, especially the Northern Areas.

Experts have predicted that the sub-continent is in for a prolonged, harsh winter this year.
