Here's what we can expect from Prince William and Kate's Pakistan tour today:
The Duke and Duchess continue their tour of Pakistan October 16, 2019 - 06:03 BST Emily Nash The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will follow in the footsteps of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, as they fly north to Pakistan's stunning Hindu Kush mountain range, a few miles from the Afghan border. William and Kate are visiting Chitral district of Pakistan's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Province, where Diana travelled on her 1991 solo tour of the country.
They will walk around the tip of a glacier to see how it has retreated as a result of climate change and, according to Kensington Palace, they "hope to shine a light on the very real consequences of global warming and its devastating effects on our planet." They will also see how severe flash flooding caused by melting glaciers has affected a nearby valley as they visit a village and meet people whose buildings and farmland were destroyed by heavy flooding in 2015.

It promises to be a "colourful and fun introduction to rural life," says Kensington Palace.
