World Cancer Day marked in Oman

Oman Cancer Association (OCA) formed the human ribbon with participation from 2,700 schoolchildren to mark World Cancer Day.
The first human ribbon was organised in 2008 when OCA was still registered as the National Association of Cancer Awareness.
The association organised various events across cities in the Sultanate that included Sur, Ibri, Bahla, Salalah and Muscat.
Moreover, Royal Opera House Muscat was also lit up in three colours—orange, pink and blue—to mark World Cancer Day.
