Where Does the Palestinian Authority Dump Ramallah's Garbage?
(JNS) Josh Hasten - Exploiting the furlough of Israeli Civil Administration inspectors during the coronavirus shutdown in March and April, convoys of Palestinian Authority municipal garbage trucks have dumped more than 10,000 cubic meters of refuse from the towns of Ramallah and El Bireh into the Binyamin Region's Tarrifi Quarry, just outside the Jewish communities of Kochav Ya'akov and Psagot. A spokesperson for the IDF Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) said it is well aware of the illegal dumping and vowed to take action.
