Three men have been arrested for climbing a large flagpole at a popular visitor attraction during the Eid Al Adha holidays in Oman. The Royal Oman Police shared video of the trio at Nizwa Fort, about 160 kilometres south-west of Muscat. The site dates back more than 400 years. It was not clear if the men were interfering with the flag or climbing the pole for a dare. Police said the men were endangering their own lives and that legal action was being considered. Oman has been <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/gulf-news/oman/2022/07/10/oman-rescuers-search-for-bodies-after-deluge-causes-flash-floods/" target="_blank">battered by rainstorms</a> in recent days that have led to flooding. There were reports of five deaths between Thursday and Sunday, and at least a dozen people had to be rescued. The south of the country around Salalah was worst hit, but two of the deaths were in northern areas.
