Al-Jazeera region witnessed on Friday night heavy rain, filled valleys, and mixed waters of torrents coming from the high mountains to rise the level of water valleys and leaking on the homes of people in the southern villages of Çilaxa and Tal Hamis and Tirbespiyê, more than 50 cm in some homes, which posed a threat to the parents' lives.

The rains also cut off the road linking many villages, districts and towns. Municipalities' machineries hastened to avoid the danger of flood waters and to facilitate their passage through sewage.

Al-Jazeera region has not seen for several years such rains that filled the artesian wells and destroyed the walls of houses.
