30-12-2025 02:33 PM


Ammon News - Three ministers held a meeting on Tuesday at the Karak Governorate building to discuss the damage caused by the recent heavy rains and landslides, and to take the necessary measures to address them.

The meeting included the Ministers of Interior, Public Works, and Tourism, who discussed the current situation in Karak Governorate and worked to prevent similar problems in the future.

Many areas of the governorate were affected, and the extent of the damage became clear after the water receded and the weather improved.

The heavy rains caused significant damage in Karak, isolating some areas and causing widespread flooding.

The meeting aimed to review all the damages reported by official authorities in the governorate and to take the necessary steps to address them.

The head of the Greater Karak Municipality Committee, Mohammad Al-Manasir, stated that the municipality dealt with 100 cases of rainwater flooding homes during the storm. He added that the rainfall exceeded expectations despite the municipality's preparations, according to Al-Mamlaka TV.

rime Minister Jafar Hassan has issued an urgent directive to all relevant ministries and state agencies to mobilize "all available resources" to address the damage caused by the severe weather system that swept the Kingdom over the past two days.

The Prime Minister ordered that the state of emergency remain in effect to mitigate the impact of an incoming cold front expected later this week.

Hassan dispatched several ministers on a field mission to the southern governorates. The delegation is tasked with assessing the aftermath of Monday’s record downpours on local infrastructure and initiating immediate rehabilitation efforts.
