affected citizens queue at the counter of a Civil Defense help desk to have their compensation paperwork processed Saturday. Many victims have complained of poor arrangements to receive their due payment. “I was supposed to receive my second weekly pocket money three weeks ago, but nothing yet,” said Abdullah Al-Sufyani, who has been living with his family of 13 in a furnished apartment since the floods destroyed their home last month. About 2,500 flood-affected families have been sheltered and scheduled for weekly payment. Giant Saudi company Sabic announced Saturday the donation of SR25 million to flood-hit families. The company has also donated a similar amount to war-displaced families in Jizan.
