Levels of PM2.5 particles are above 200 micrograms per cubic meter in most urban areas of the capital,that's above safe levels. Many areas have a level 5 "heavy pollution" warning, with some places at level 6, the highest pollution level.

Residents are being advised to limit outdoor activities, and to wear masks if they have to stay outdoors. The elderly, the sick and young children are being advised to stay indoors.
