Among the Arab weather, Iraq is exposed to a deep pentagonal depression that brought strong winds, which in turn led to the formation of sandstorms in large areas of the country, including the capital, Baghdad.

It is worth noting that the Arab Weather Center has issued its updates about the Khamasini depression and warned of heavy dust waves for this day.
