Czech Supreme Administrative Court ruled today in favour better protection of human health from air pollution in Brno, a Czech city with 370 thousand inhabitants. The Court revoked the city's Air Quality Management Plan, issued in 2016 by the Czech Ministry of Environment.

A similar ruling was issued in December 2017 with respect to Ostrava and in February 2018 regarding Prague and Usti region.
