A severe sandstorm has struck Iraq, causing significant disruptions across the country. As a result, airports closed and over 3,700 individuals faced health issues, primarily breathing difficulties. The health ministry reported these alarming numbers on Tuesday, highlighting the storm’s impact on public health and safety.
The choking dust from the storm has created hazardous conditions for people, leading to an influx of patients seeking medical attention.
