Kuwait's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said Thursday that incoming flights have been diverted to nearby airports due to fog and low visibility.

In a press statement, the DGCA said the take-off and landing of aircrafts will resume once weather conditions improve in the country, according to Kuwait News Agency (KUNA).

Kuwait's Meteorological Department stated on its website that the country is currently witnessing a decrease in horizontal visibility due to fog, reaching less than a thousand meters.
