The phenomena of partial solar eclipse observed Monday in Syria from the 10:38 in the morning to 13:29 afternoon. Chairman of the Syrian Universal Association, Fayez Fauqa al-Adah, said in statement to SANA that it is known that looking to the sun during the eclipse might cause damages to the eyes.
Faoq al-Adah added that man naturally can continue his daily life but on the condition of not looking into the sun and taking care of the children because their curiosity may push them to watch the sun.
