Sultan Ahmed. | 14 years ago | Reply Never come such rain as have seen this year, which make situation horrible, beautiful houses converted into rubbish, many families lost their beloved, rainy flood water destroyed everything. It is opened reality, the situation is beyond human being control natural calamity, God have created it and He remove it.
