Athens, a city in Southern Greece, experienced a surreal sight on Tuesday as strong winds carried dust from the Sahara Desert over the city, enveloping landmarks like the Acropolis in an eerie orange haze. This phenomenon painted the city with an otherworldly hue, reminiscent of the Martian landscape. Experts note that this event is one of the most significant episodes of dust and sand concentrations from the Sahara since 2018 and has raised concerns about potential respiratory hazards. While the skies are expected to clear by Wednesday, this dust cloud serves as a stark reminder of the far-reaching effects of environmental phenomena.
