Specifically, Al-Maghrib Road leading to the capital, Surra, Al-Jahra Road opposite Al Tilal, Abdul Karim Al-Khattabi Street next to Hawally Passport office, as well as the Soukh Mubarakiya parking lots in the capital region, have been closed due to rising water levels.

As a result, Al-Wahida urged everyone to adhere to the Ministry of Education's instructions and stay informed of the latest official updates through the Ministry's official social media accounts.
