Arab Weather - Satellite images in recent days have revealed a clear expansion of the water area along parts of the Euphrates River, in a scene that reflects the large size of the flood and the remarkable rise in water levels in some areas adjacent to the river.

Time-based comparisons of satellite images showed an expansion of the flooded areas on both banks of the river, with water spreading into some nearby lands, reflecting the significant impact of increased water flows in recent times.

According to visual analyses of satellite images, the magnitude of the flood was evident from the vast areas affected by the water, with significant changes observed in the natural landscape of the river course compared to previous periods.

We ask God for safety for everyone.
