Banners were raised in the streets of the town of Deir Ammar – Al-Minnieh and at its main entrance, in the name of the municipality and the people, expressing their refusal to establish a landfill for waste in the town. This protest move comes within the framework of measures launched by the municipality, dignitaries, residents, civil society organizations and activists, a few days ago, to express their refusal to establish a landfill for waste in the outskirts of the town, as suggested, due to the health and environmental impact it will have on the residents, and the pollution it will cause to the underground water wells and plantation crops.
