Dramatic new footage from Oman shows the country's air force rescuing a man by helicopter after he was trapped in a wadi.
The video was posted on the Weather Oman Instagram page (@weatheroman) and was geotagged in the northern town of Rustaq. It has been specifically identified in the caption as Wadi Bani Ghafer.
The video shows an Royal Oman Air Force helicopter touching down on the small island where a man was stuck. They pulled him on board as water flows violently around them.
This comes as the country has been lashed by heavy rains and high winds for a few days now.
The video has over 4,000 likes.
