Pakistan refugee camps flooded by internally displaced people

The United Nations has registered 501,000 refugees from the latest fighting.
About 73,000 are living in hot, tented camps established just south of the war zone.

At least 45,000 residents of the Swat Valley in Pakistan have fled the region as Pakistani troops are battling Taliban militants. The militants are estimated to be around 7,000 strong and are armed with rocket propelled grenades and are skilled in combat. The Pakistan government has sent in around 15,000 troops to confront the Taliban. This operation comes on the heels of a campaign against the Taliban in the Bajur and Mohmand districts. The fighting in the region has forced the evacuation of the civilian population, creating a humanitarian emergency.
