QUNFUDAH – Two sisters drowned in a pool of contaminated water east of Khamis Mushayt. One of the girls playing near the pool slipped and fell inside. Her 15-year-old sister jumped into the pool to rescue her but both drowned. A Sudanese man, who happened to be nearby, saw the girls and rushed to help them but it was too late. The pool was formed by heavy rains that lashed Qunfudah recently.
