Investigation and Monitoring

Initial findings suggest that the smell likely originated from routine emissions from local factories and does not pose a danger to the public. The SCE has stated that special teams are actively monitoring air quality and taking samples according to established safety protocols.

Advice for the Public

The council emphasizes that everything is under control and encourages the public to rely on official updates for information, rather than spreading rumors. The investigation into the source of the gas odor is ongoing.
