The storm, driven by powerful winds, blocked the sky and forced residents to stay inside while the dust clouds covered the area.
Riyadh, the capital of the kingdom, was also affected. The clouds of dust swept the city, obscuring the horizon line and disturbing daily life while people were looking for shelter inside.
The Saudi National Meteorology Center has issued prior warnings, in particular for Al Qassim, where visibility fell nearby.
The authorities advised motorists to drive with extreme caution, while the road patrols have been deployed to manage the dangerous conditions on key roads.
