Muscat: One person sustained severe injuries while two others suffered moderate injuries after a house collapsed in Al Mabela industrial area on Wednesday morning, the Public Authority for Civil Defence and Ambulance (PACDA) reported.

The three injured are elderly Omani nationals in their late 50s and early 60s, an official at PACDA told the Times of Oman.

He suspects the collapse was due to the weak foundation of the old house.
