Al-Naameh residents staged Sunday a protest near the landfill to protest against the government’s decision to reopen the facility for seven days, within the framework of the comprehensive plan proposed by Agriculture Minister Akram Chehayeb.
The protesters reiterated their rejection to the reopening of the landfill, “not even for one hour”, stressing that their sit-in will continue.
For their part, environmentalists who are taking part in the sit-in noted that they will propose an alternative plan on Monday at 1 pm.
