Three Saudi Arabian men have been lauded as heroes and rewarded with a trip to China after rescuing two Chinese engineers from a vehicle trapped in floodwaters. The incident, which occurred on November 16th in the Hail province of southern Saudi Arabia, highlights the potential dangers posed by increasingly severe weather events globally.
The three Saudi nationals – Ahmed Nasser Al Anzi, Hamoud Masamah Al Anzi, and Mubarak Farih Al Anzi – sprang into action when the engineers’ vehicle became stranded and tilted precariously during heavy rainfall and strong winds. The vehicle was at risk of being swept away by the rapidly rising floodwaters.
