79. DADU, PAKISTAN - SEPTEMBER 11: Flood victims walk with their belongings toward a navy craft in hopes of being evacuated from their flood destroyed village on September 11, 2010 near to the village of Kalimuri, near Dadu in Sindh province, Pakistan. Six-weeks after flooding began, new devastation continues across the Sindh province of Pakistan, as flood waters, still on the rise, continue to overcome new villages. The country's agricultural heartland has been devastated, with rice, corn and wheat crops destroyed by floods. Officials say as many as 22 million people have been affected during Pakistan's worst flooding in 80 years. The army and aid organisations are struggling to cope with the scope of the wide spread scale of the disaster that has killed over 1,700 people and displaced millions. The UN has described the disaster as unprecedented, with over a third of the country under water. (Photo by Daniel Berehulak/Getty Images
