Arab weather - The capital, Baghdad, like other regions of Iraq, is still under the influence of a dense dust wave that arose in the morning and its effects are still continuing so far, but with its intensification remarkably, as the latest airport observations recorded the maximum horizontal visibility of only about 300-400 meters.

At the same time, the southeastern, eastern and northern areas of Anbar Governorate are still exposed to dust waves of varying intensity, amid an increase in dust rates, which negatively affects the horizontal visibility and the clarity of the air.
