Challenges Facing Waste Management

The committee identified the risks faced by sanitation workers during the transportation of waste to the temporary dump site in the Al-Dabab area, along with the consequences of disrupted waste removal operations.
Resumption of Waste Removal Operations
The Emergency Committee approved the resumption of waste removal operations. They noted that Taiz has relied on the temporary dump in Al-Dabab for over eleven years due to the militias’ obstruction of access to the main dump at the Sharab intersection. The committee considered the blockade preventing garbage trucks from reaching the Al-Saleh Gardens dump as further evidence of the ongoing siege on the city.
Collaborative Efforts for Public Health
