High concentrations of dust are observed in the air on Wednesday, according to measurements from ground Stations of the Air Quality Monitoring Network operated by the Greek Cypriot Department of Labour Inspection.
People, especially those belonging to vulnerable groups, were urged to avoid going outdoors, as the small size of respirable particles “may have negative effects on human health”, the labour inspection department said.
The latest dust concentrations measured at 10.00 am were 132,4 μg/m3 in Nicosia, 104,2 μg/m3 Limassol, 78,8 μg/m3 Larnaca, 41,6 μg/m3 Paralimni, 116,9 μg/m3 Paphos and 39,6 μg/m3 Agia Marina Xyliatou
