The first phase of the relief distribution began on Wednesday, August 4, around the cities of Lahore and Kasur and was carried out by skilled and experienced relief workers from the Danish European Mission's partner organization in the country. Through the operation, the flood victims received enough food for 55-60 days, medicine, cooking utensils, clothes and other relief items. This first phase of the relief operation was carried out with the support of DANIDA, administered by the Danish Mission Council Development Department.
Before distribution began, a preliminary survey was carried out in the areas where the aid was to be distributed. To ensure that the aid reached the most exposed and vulnerable victims, different criteria were established to determine who should receive the aid. In this way, the aid reached particularly poor families, among others. The Danish European Mission is currently continuing the collection for the benefit of the victims.
