The directorate noted that Civil Defense teams have responded to multiple cases where people were trapped in vehicles due to rising floodwaters in several areas. All trapped individuals were rescued safely, with no injuries reported.
Authorities also emphasized the safe use of all types of heating devices, ensuring proper ventilation periodically, and never leaving heaters on while sleeping to prevent accidents such as suffocation or fires.
The Public Security Directorate reminded citizens to call the unified emergency number (911) anywhere in the kingdom if assistance is needed.
