South Al Batinah Governorate bore the brunt of yesterday’s Barakat Trough which saw parts of Oman hammered by lashing winds and torrential rains.

 

In Barka Municipality, which was especially hard-hit by the weather trough, extensive damage to trees, vehicles, and structures was observed — as photos from the Ministry of Regional Municipalities and Water Resources show.

Oman’s Public Authority for Civil Aviation issued a weather alert , as the Barakat Trough made landfall in the Sultanate.
