Three people were injured on Saturday when lightning struck in Sohar, the ROP reported.
“One of them is in a critical stage and we have evacuated the person to Sohar hospital,” ROP said in a statement.
The recent deep air depression caused heavy rainfall, thunderstorm and strong winds in North Al Batinah.
ROP has called for residents of the Sultanate to take caution while venturing out of their homes and has advised against taking the risk of crossing valleys.
