In this photograph taken on August 3, 2024 a girl washes utensils along the banks of a canal at Khan Muhammad Mallah village in Main Nara Valley, Dadu district, Sindh province. As monsoon rains were about to break over Pakistan, 14-year-old Shamila and her 13-year-old sister Amina were married off in exchange for money, a decision their parents made to help the family survive the threat of floods.
