AMMAN, Jan 20 (KUNA) -- Kuwait has urged its nationals visiting Jordan to be cautious amid a spread of a wave of unsettled weather over the region, in fear of their safety.
Authorities in Jordan have raised the emergency level to maximum after the weather conditions reached their most severe last week.
People in the country have been told not to approach valleys or flooded areas as the low pressure system continues to sweep the country.
Caution was urged particularly in areas witnessing heavy snowfall and rain with Kuwait's Embassy in Amman saying it was ready to offer round-the-clock assistance to nationals, who may be in distress.
In the case of emergency, the embassy provided the following hotlines:
- (+962) 6567-5135
- (+962) 6567-5136
- (+962) 6567-5137. (end)
