It will cover the southwestern and central regions of Khatlon region, as well as Dushanbe, areas of republican subordination and the northern part of Sughd region, the Emergency Situations Committee under the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan warns.
"This will lead to air pollution with dust and particles of 10 microns (PM10) and 2.5 microns (PM2.5) in size," the department notes.
In addition, glacial mudslides, rockfalls and landslides are possible in the mountainous regions of Tajikistan in the next 24 hours.

- drink up to 2-2.5 liters of water per day, including up to 0.5 liters of mineral water;
- keep the windows closed or protect them with nets that need to be moistened;
