One of the Saudi fathers in Jeddah said, “I am in a dilemma after hearing this sad news. I just hope that god just grants them with patience and relief.”
I am outraged that kids were left alone in classrooms, and school authorities are taking no responsibility in order to supervise the kids. This is a sign of carelessness, unprofessional and detrimental to student lives.
