The foundation of a multi-storey hotel in Kalam, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, was washed away by raging floodwaters in the River Swat. The hotel fell down.

Horrifying videos that are going around social media show how the “Honeymoon Hotel,” which was on the riverbank, started to fall apart from one side and was washed away in the blink of an eye.

Reports said that no one was hurt because all of the hotels near the river were empty when the water in the river started to rise because of unusual rain in the eighth monsoon spell.
