Answer:

d. shamal (wind)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The shamal means a northwesterly wind that blows over the Iraq and the Persian Gulf, includes Saudi Arabia and the Kuwait winds decrease in the night time and mostly occur in the summer.
  • Thus winds create a sand storm that impacts most of the Iraq and Jordan and lasts for about three to five days. The wind speeds can reach up to 70 km/hr as it damages both life and property.
