The Ministry of Interior is reminding residents to double check electric and gas cooking stoves at home. It’s as the Eid Al Adha holiday period takes effect from this week. The authority wants to ensure safe cooking practices are maintained, with families asked to seek the help of professional technicians to regularly check and fix any malfunctions. They have also warned against the use of barbecues or grills indoors, while parents are advised to ensure that children do not access areas where they could come into contact with flames or hot liquids.
