The use of Zig-Zag technology, modern sensors, and newly established monitoring stations have been pivotal in tracking and improving air quality.

Officials said that these improvements reflect the success of ground-level interventions and the adoption of international standards for monitoring pollution.

While past years lacked modern equipment and accurate data collection, the current measures have allowed better assessment of air quality and the implementation of timely corrective actions

The report cautions, however, that achieving complete improvement in air quality relative to seasonal variations cannot happen within a few months.
