Muscat: SOHAR Port and Freezone have donated OMR 250,000 to the Oman Charitable Organisation (OCO) to aid Cyclone Shaheen recovery efforts. Relief work will start immediately to repair infrastructure, restore vital services, shelter for residents, and will also provide food, clean water, and medical supplies throughout the governorate.
