The police reported that a fire suddenly broke out in a vehicle that had just reached the petrol pump near the Criminal Courts Complex on the busy road. The quick-thinking driver, noticing the flames, promptly drove the fuel tanker away from the pump and stopped it on the road to prevent further danger.
The tanker capsized 25 nautical miles southeast of Ras Madrakah in the Wilayat of Duqm, prompting a coordinated search and rescue operation, Oman's Maritime Security Centre stated in a post on X on Monday.
