Zaldibarko zabortegiaren krisia
AMENDMENT

Sos Deiak considers that what is removed from the Zaldibar landfill is not smoke, steam and dust.

  • On Thursday afternoon, the landfill of Verter Recyclyngen is again moistened at Zaldibar, according to the images that several citizens have shared on social networks. However, Sos Deiak has reported that this is not a fire, but a smoke and dust from the work being done. Today, in Zaldibar, Eibar, Mallabia, Elgeta and Ermua three hours of unemployment and mobilizations have been carried out to clarify what happened.

After the event, the Zaldibar landfill burned for several days, spilling large quantities of dioxins and furans. The fire was last unleashed on 20 February, when a fire broke out. Now, the smoke reappears at the top of the landfill, as seen in the images disseminated by a Facebook user.

On the other hand, the Zaldibar Argitu platform has carried out three-hour stops at Eibar, Mallabia, Elgeta, Ermua and Zaldibar. Demonstrations and concentrations have also taken place in Bilbao.

The platform decided to postpone the afternoon demonstrations in the localities of Eibar and Ermua and Markina: "Our goal is to bring our health and lives to the center and we want to act responsibly this time too, for the coronavirus."
