Urban Legend: Photographs show a sandstorm in Iraq.

Images are purportedly photographs of a sandstorm in Al Asad, Iraq, taken on 26 April 2005.
Status: True, apparently
We do not yet know the specific origins of these pictures, but the contextual information accompanying them does correspond to a real event, and they match other photos of the same phenomenon: a dust storm which struck Al Asad in the western desert of Iraq on 26 April 2005.
