Sandstorm in Iraq shuts down airports, 3,700 hospitalized with breathing issues

Arun Jain, 15/04/2025


Baghdad:

The Health Ministry said on Tuesday that a sandstorm was swept away through Iraq, which shut down the airports, shutting down the airports and put more than 3,700 people in the hospital with difficulties in breathing.

AFP photographers reported that visibility decreased by one kilometer (barely half mile) in middle and southern cities, as the storm had closed the area in a terrible orange gauge.

Both Basra and Najaf airports closed for a period of storm, which started spreading on Tuesday morning.

Health Ministry spokesman Saif al-Bara said that Basra was the worst hit province, which was an accounting for more than 1,000 out of 3,747 hospital entry responsible for sandstorm.

A photographer of AFP said that many of those who dared to enter Basra, many of them wore a face mask to protect themselves from Choking Dust.

Sandstorm Central and Southern Iraq have a perennial feature of life, but the Ministry of Environment has warned that the country may expect to face the increasing number of “days of dust” in the coming decades due to the impact of global warming.

In 2022, a heavy sandstorm saw a person dying and more than 5,000 was treated for difficulties in the hospital.
