SANA'A October 24.2023 (Saba)-Governor of Al-Mahra, Al-Qatabi Ali Al-Farji, called on the people of Al-Mahra to take precautions to avoid the dangers of Tropical Storm “Tej.”
The governor warned citizens living in the depths of the valleys, farmers and fishermen of the dangers of staying in low-lying places that are vulnerable to floods and hurricane threats.
He called on international and humanitarian organizations working in Al-Mahra to intervene and support efforts to spare citizens from risks and damage, confront the repercussions of the hurricane, and limit its potential effects.
He also called on citizens to take the utmost caution with the onset of the effects of the tropical condition on Al-Mahra as a result of Storm “Tej” and the heavy rains and strong winds that accompany it.
According to preliminary statistics from Al-Mahra Governorate, the number of displaced people from low-lying areas and valleys reached 936 families, including 600 families in Al-Ghaydah District.
Most areas of the governorate have been witnessing heavy rains since Monday morning without stopping, which portends a humanitarian disaster, especially in the districts of Huswain and Al-Ghaydah as a result of road closures and inability of rescue teams to intervene to provide assistance to citizens.
