The Ministry of Emergencies warns against the formation of extensive fog in several districts and issues traffic safety instructions. Details: The Ministry of Emergency and Disaster Management warned against the formation of extensive fog on Thursday evening, dawn and Friday morning, November 6, 2026, leading to a decrease in horizontal visibility. The ministry explained that the formation of the fog includes Idlib, Aleppo, Homs, Hama and parts of Marka and Takia, up to the northern and western countryside of Damascus and parts of Daraa and Quneitra governorates. The warning and preparedness department at the ministry called on citizens to avoid traveling at night and in the early morning, unless absolutely necessary. I emphasized the need to ensure the technical condition of the car before setting off, especially the readiness of the brakes, wipers and fog lights. The department called for driving carefully, following lanes and using fog lights, leaving a sufficient safety distance and avoiding sudden stops to avoid accidents due to low visibility. I recommended reducing the speed and being very careful at turns, slopes and intersections, while warning the drivers to the pedestrians and the need for the pedestrians to stick to the places designated for crossing.
