Islamabad — The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) has launched a large‑scale winterization initiative in Pakistan, announcing the distribution of 22,000 Winter Kits to vulnerable communities across 26 of the country’s coldest districts.

The program, part of KSrelief’s annual winter support effort, will reach regions severely affected by harsh weather, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Gilgit‑Baltistan, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, as well as selected areas of Punjab and Sindh experiencing low temperatures.
