Small flying insects gathering around the pot flowers
Looks like some sort of fungus gnat though I won't make any attempt to ID a particular species. Note that fungus gnat describes a very wide range of species over 6 families, though yours looks most like the flies from the family Sciaridae (Wikipedia notes there are ~600 species in Europe).

Fungus gnats feed on organisms decomposing soil, which are most present when the soil is moist, especially if overwatered. The damage you will experience, if any, would be to the roots, rather than visible on the leaves, though you will see wilting if the damage becomes significant.

You say things are dry, however, the important place is the soil. You will deter, though probably not completely eliminate, the fungus gnats if you let the soil dry between waterings (in my personal experience with fungus gnats this approach was sufficient). Some specific parasitic nematodes are also used for pest control of fungus gnats, if they are available in your area.
