Night attacks caused fires in the capital, which created smog, but as of the morning of September 28, reference stations record a low level of pollution. The smell of smoke may be felt due to the wind direction, so the KMDA asks Kyiv residents to close windows, writes UNN.
Details
As a result of night shelling, fires broke out in the capital, and smog formed over the city. At the same time, as of the morning of September 28, the level of atmospheric air pollution in Kyiv is low
The KMDA explained that a noticeable smell of burning can occur even when reference monitoring stations show that the level of air pollution by key indicators remains low.
After explosions, the smell of smoke is often felt near the impact sites or where the wind carries it. The wind can also lift harmful substances above the ground or disperse them, so monitoring stations sometimes show less intense pollution than a person feels.
If the smell of smoke is felt in your area of the city, it is recommended to: close windows; if possible, limit time outdoors; drink more water.
Recall
