Strong winds carrying fine dust are sweeping the nation, causing reduced horizontal visibility, according to a warning from Qatar's Meteorological Department.
A massive dust storm over the northern Arabian Peninsula is moving toward the country, according to satellite imagery issued by the Department on July 6, 2025.
Strong northwesterly winds carried the dust this morning, causing reduced horizontal vision of fewer than three kilometers in parts of southern Qatar.
The Ministry of Interior (MoI) echoed the warning by advising drivers and commuters nationwide to remain aware and use caution in their official X account.
