Civil defense searches for child swept by floodwaters in Mafraq

Civil Defense teams in Jordan are dealing with a report that a child was swept away by floodwaters following a rise in water levels in the Wadi Al-Zaatari area in the Mafraq governorate, per Roya’s correspondent.

Rescue teams immediately launched extensive search and sweep operations across the area.

Heavy rainfall triggered flash floods, causing a significant rise in water levels in valleys and low-lying areas.

Search and rescue teams are continuing operations at the scene, deploying all available equipment in an effort to locate the missing child.

Despite difficult terrain and fast-moving waters, crews are working continuously.
