Arab Weather - The satellite images received by the Arab Regional Weather Center have detected a strong and huge sandstorm over the southern regions of Iraq, and it will gradually move for the next few hours directly towards Kuwait, especially the interior regions.

As a result, there is a significant increase in the proportions of dust in the atmosphere, and a significant decrease in the extent of horizontal visibility may reach the point of absence, so the Arab Weather website advises to close the windows and take the necessary precautions to deal with the dusty atmosphere, and pay attention to the danger of the lack of horizontal visibility due to the density of dust .
