"It's just terrible, we can't drink any water". Over 700 people have been killed so far in a heatwave in Pakistan. It's Ramadan which means the majority of people can't drink anything until sunset, there are mass power cuts and water supplies have been affected. Bina Shah and Sheema Khanin live in Karachi the capital of Sindh province in the South of Pakistan and shared their experiences with Newshour.
