Catastrophic Flooding in Saudi Arabia: Mecca, Jeddah, Madinah Hit by Record Rains, Cars Submerged

Severe flooding has hit Saudi Arabia, particularly in Mecca, Jeddah, and Madinah, after record-breaking rainfall caused widespread destruction. Torrential downpours have turned streets into rivers, submerging cars, flooding highways, and causing major disruptions. The Saudi Meteorological Department issued a red alert for these cities as water levels reached dangerous heights. Footage from the affected regions shows scenes of cars almost completely submerged, with only the tops of their roofs visible above the water. In Jeddah, a city already prone to flooding, residents were seen abandoning their vehicles and scrambling to safety as water inundated streets. Similar scenes were recorded in Mecca, including the holy city's streets, which have become impassable. #MeccaFloods #SaudiArabiaFloods #FloodsInMecca #MeccaFlooding #FloodDamage #MeccaStorm #MeccaRainfall #SaudiFlood #FlashFloods #FloodRecovery #Mecca2025Flood #FloodInMeccaToday #MeccaKaabaFlood #SaudiArabiaFlood #FloodsInSaudiArabia Also Read WATCH VIDEO | Severe Weather Hits Mecca And Medina: Saudi Arabia Braces For Rain, Hail, And Floods :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/watch-videio-severe-weather-hits-mecca-and-medina-saudi-arabia-braces-for-rain-hail-and-floods-4035815.html?ref=DMDesc 98 Indians Died During Haj Pilgrimage This Year: MEA :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/98-indians-died-during-haj-pilgrimage-this-year-mea-3858607.html?ref=DMDesc Liberals won’t mind Shahrukh Khan visiting Mecca without his family :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/liberals-won-t-mind-shahrukh-khan-visiting-mecca-without-his-family-3495128.html?ref=DMDesc
