TEHRAN, Apr. 16 (MNA) – The Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Nasser Kan'ani offered condolences on the death of Omani citizens in flash floods in this country to the government and people of Oman.

Nasser Kan'ani also said he was about personal and financial damage caused by flash floods in Oman, expressing the sympathy of the Iranian government and nation to this neighboring and brotherly country, and prayed for patience for the survivors from God Almighty. 

At least 17 people have died in flash floods triggered by heavy rain across Oman since Sunday, the country’s National Committee for Emergency Management (NCEM) reports.

Authorities in Oman are conducting “rescue operations” after announcing all schools in six governorates including Muscat, would be closed Monday “due to unstable weather conditions,” according to a Monday UNOCHA statement.

Moderate heavy rainfall is expected across north-eastern and northern Oman over the next few days.
