Yesterday evening, a huge fire broke out in the forests of Jabal Ghalameh in Tanuma Governorate, KSA, as the winds helped in speeding the spread of the fire, while civil defense fire vehicles are trying to extinguish the huge fire.

The Saudi Civil Defense wrote, through its Twitter account: “The civil defence teams in Tanuma Governorate are extinguishing a fire in a rugged area in Jabal Ghulamah, where the strong winds contributed to its spread, and the teams are working to besiege it, and no injuries have been recorded so far, thanks to God.”

"Tanuma's fire" became the most popular hashtag in KSA, and all Twitter users paid to overcome that ordeal, and Sattah bin Badr said: "We belong to God, and to Him, we shall return. Oh God, keep our people in Tanuma safe and keep all evil away from them."

Another tweeter in KSA published a "video" via the hashtag, through which the flames appeared over large areas of land, and commented: “There is no strength but to God!; a very terrifying sight, O God, be kind with people of Tanuma and hasten the end of this fire without harm."
