Karachi is currently under the attack of Locusts and various part of the city is swarmed with the insect right now.
Just last month Karachi was infested by flies and they were everywhere in the city whether you are indoor or outdoor.
This is the third time in the past two months that we experience such a terrible infestation of insects that have covered the sky of the city.
Many crowded areas such as Defence, Shahra-e-Faisal, Malir, and even Bhahdurabad is currently under attack and residents are sharing videos on their social media.
Even celebrities like Sunita Marshall has shared a video on her Instagram just moments ago.
People are actually worried about the millions of insects flying over their heads. Initially, they were seen in the Malir agricultural area only.
