Civil Defense extinguishes apartment fire in Dammam caused by electrical fault
Civil Defense teams in Dammam put out a fire in an Al-Nahda district apartment sparked by an electrical short circuit.
Ajman Civil Defence honoured a nine-year-old boy, Rashid Abdullah Al Hosani, for his bravery and quick-thinking when he prevented a house fire from spreading. The General Directorate of Civil Defence recognized the young hero for his swift response after noticing the blaze in his home. Working with his grandmother, Rashid contained and extinguished the fire using a soaked blanket, averting a potential disaster.
To acknowledge his actions, he was welcomed to the Civil Defence headquarters and given an appreciation award, followed by a tour of the facilities, a firefighting equipment demonstration, and a fire safety session. While the outcome was positive, Civil Defence emphasized that children should not extinguish fires alone and should alert adults and contact emergency services instead.
