Air Quality Worsens in Hungarian Cities
Air quality has deteriorated across Hungary due to a high concentration of airborne particulates, the National Public Health Centre (NNK) said on Tuesday.

NNK said air quality has deteriorated to unhealthy levels in Sajószentpéter.

Concentrations of particulates are also considered to be too high in the cities of Nyíregyháza, Miskolc, Oszlár, Kazincbarcika, Putnok, Salgótarján, Dorog and Várpalota, it said.

The national weather service has said no improvement in air quality is likely over the next few days.
