Breathing ailments and air masks have gone short in the markets as the conditions of fog and unusual smog continues to prevail in different cities of Punjab, triggering road accidents and causing health hazards.
The masks have been flying off the shelves so quickly that most stores have run out of them, leaving many residents under risk of suffering from consequences of breathing in the toxic air.
Due to very low visibility in fog, authorities closed Motorway from Lahore to Sial Mor, Gojra to Faisalabad and Pindi Bhattian to Faisalabad for all kind of traffic.
At least three people were killed in fog-triggered road accidents in Sahiwal and Okara cities.
Cities and plains of Punjab continued to remain covered in thick and grey smog, heavily loaded with pollutants causing breathing ailments and eye infections.
