Heavy rain is currently falling across several areas of the Jordanian capital, Amman, accompanied by frequent thunder.

As the rainfall continues, authorities have issued increased warnings over the risk of flash floods and rising water levels in parts of the city.

Field reports indicate that the heavy rain has led to significant water accumulation, particularly in low-lying areas, underpasses, and beneath bridges.

Public security teams and emergency units at the Greater Amman Municipality urged residents to exercise extreme caution, stressing the importance of staying away from flood channels and avoiding attempts to cross water-covered roads.

Emergency crews are currently deployed across the city to respond to any incidents or reports.
