Kyiv Shrouded In Heavy Smog Following Russian Attack


(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Ukrinform reports this, citing a Facebook pos by the State Service for Emergencies.

According to the SSE, residual smoke and soot have risen into the upper atmosphere, while an anticyclone is temporarily trapping them near the ground.

“There is almost no wind at the moment, so the air is not circulating, but as soon as the wind picks up this fog and the sun comes out, everything will gradually disperse,” the post reads.

Rescuers advised residents to close their windows and vents, especially in Podil, Lukianivka, Shevchenkivskyi district and Borshchahivka.

They also advised people to refrain from airing out their homes. If available, residents should turn on an air purifier or carry out wet cleaning. Drivers should turn on their fog lights and keep a safe distance.
