A severe rainstorm battered Hafr Al Batin, located in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province, triggering the collapse of high-voltage electricity towers on Sunday and resulting in significant disruptions to power supply.
The storm, characterized by strong downward wind currents, stirred up dense dust waves, leading to reduced visibility across the region. Subsequently, heavy rainfall compounded the already adverse weather conditions.
Social media platforms were inundated with videos capturing the dramatic moment when several high-voltage lines succumbed to the ferocity of the storm, collapsing to the ground.
