WATCH: MASSIVE STORM CAUSES IT TO RAIN FISH IN MALTA

A huge storm in Malta caused such strong winds that it rained FISH across the island.

Gale-force gusts and heavy downpours, coupled with the rough seas, caused the unusual phenomenon.

The devastating storm has caused major damage and disruptions on the roads along the coastal area of the Mediterranean island.

And the government issued a warning of 'high threat to life and property'.

The gusts sent piles of sea bream flying off the sea and landed on the roads in Xemxija, near St Paul's Bay in north Malta.

A number of residents can be seen risking their lives to pick up the fish and collect them in piles.

A man can be heard saying: "One of the fish farms must have broke open, and there's hundreds and hundreds of fish that have been blown ashore, and these people are here picking up the fish from the middle of the street."

Prophet predicts doom for pastors in 2019

File photo An Accra-based man of God, King Kweku Williams, aka Prophet Solomon, has predicted doom for pastors in the country in 2019, if they don’t rise up in prayer and do the right things before God.

However, if the Clergy in the country would rise up in prayer, he pleaded, these deaths could be averted. Prophet Solomon revealed that, due to a strong quest for power among some politicians, bloodthirsty spirits would become very active in the year, leading to very tragic deaths among children, women and mostly, people often referred to as ‘ordinary Ghanaians’. “...
