Russian tourists began to choke in Malaysia due to smog

Russian tourists began to suffocate in Malaysia due to smog; people are urged not to go outside. Baza writes about this in the Telegram channel.

Tourists from the Russian Federation complained of high levels of air pollution, which causes coughing, eye irritation and breathing problems. The smog is reported to have come from Indonesia, where forest and peat fires are raging.

The south of Malaysia turned out to be the most unsafe. There, authorities closed schools in several states and moved the national holiday to another day. Tourists were urged to limit movement on the streets. In addition, poor visibility disrupted operations at Senai Airport, with five flights delayed or diverted and Malaysian airline Firefly canceling flights to neighboring countries.
