This has led to extremely high air pollution in the cities of these two countries, where it is almost impossible to see more than few meters in distance, hard to breathe, the stench is unbearable...

2. oceanic-continental boundaries: this occurs when there is a collision between oceanic and continental plates, resulting in the downward movement of oceanic plate, while the volcanic arc rises on land

3. continental-continental boundaries: this occurs due to the massive crust of slabs clashing against each other. Thereby leading to big mountains forming from folded, faulted, and thickened convergent boundaries
