Gilgit –  Frontier Works Organization is currently working on spillway of the dammed Hunza River. The spillway is being blocked to stop the flow of water, to help the excavation machines in removal of the landslide debris.

The excavation work will help bring the water level further down, reducing risk to the upstream villages.

The FWO is likely to blast the temporary blockade towards the end of April.
