An 11-year-old miraculously survived after a freak flash flood in Saeeda Al Sawalha, northwestern Asir, Saudi Arabia, claimed the lives of five other family members.
The deceased have been identified as Muayadh Al Zahrani, principal of Al Bayhaqi School in Al Khattarash, Muhayil Asir, his wife, the principal of Tiyah Al Issa School, and their three children: Miral, Qais, and Aws. Qusay is the sole survivor.
Matar Al Zahrani said that his brother, Muayadh, was returning with his family when the torrents suddenly overtook them.
Warnings have been issued alerting drivers to the dangers of these fast-moving torrents. The high water levels and rapid flows can cause partial vehicle slides or unsafe stopping conditions.
