Fuming Chouf residents blocked the Beirut-Sidon highway Sunday to protest the disposal of Beirut and Mount Lebanon’s garbage in their villages, threatening to prolong the country’s week-long garbage crisis. Residents from the Iqlim al-Kharoub region blocked the Beirut-Sidon highway near the town of Barja, preventing four garbage trucks from transferring waste into the area, the state-run National News Agency reported. According to NNA, a number of men also protested near the entrance of the Sibline cement factory in order to prevent garbage trucks from transferring waste to it. |
