Oman is facing a humanitarian crisis after heavy storms in the Gulf of Oman caused a ship carrying oil to capsize, resulting in the tragic loss of at least 18 lives. However, Iranian emergency services were able to rescue all 21 crew members, who were originally from Sri Lanka.
The Cook Islands-flagged vessel went down about 50 kilometers off the southern city of Jask, according to reports from the official IRNA news agency. A rescue vessel was quickly dispatched to the area and all crew members were successfully saved. Five of the sailors required medical attention and were promptly treated by Jask emergency services. Thankfully, their physical condition is reported to be good.
The torrential rains that have been battering the region since Monday have caused significant damage and loss of life in Oman, including other countries like United Arab Emirates and Strait of Hormuz. These natural disasters serve as a reminder of the importance of emergency preparedness and response efforts to protect and save lives in times of crisis.
