JERUSALEM (CBSDFW.COM) - A dust storm covered parts of the Mideast Tuesday morning. People in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Gaza City were welcomed with a yellow fog.

Even though the scenery at Jerusalem's Mount of Olives was difficult to see, tourists still flocked to the holy site.

Despite wearing a mask, a Brazilian tourist was having trouble breathing while visiting a site near Gethsamane.

A local fisherman in Gaza says he is carrying on unperturbed, saying that the weather would not affect his ability to fish.

Israel's Environmental Protection minister is warning residents to stay indoors to avoid the pollution.
