إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
You Stink activists dumped trash early on Thursday in front of several ministries protesting the government’s dysfunction on a months-long trash crisis, the state-run National News Agency reported.
The activists dumped waste near the ministries of Environment, Labor, Energy, Foreign, Culture, Education, Social Affairs, Industry and Displaced.
Three of the campaigners were arrested including Tarek al-Mallah, Sukayna Fawwaz and Claude Jaber who was later released, reports said.
A trash crisis that erupted in July following the closure of the Naameh landfill sparked a protest movement led by You Stink activist group, which brought thousands of people into the streets for several weeks of demonstrations.
A plan that was approved by the cabinet in early September to solve the waste crisis has run into a series of obstacles.

This country is hijacked by incompetent people ,disconnected from the real world and the people, they are isolated in ivory towers surrounded by their private armies preaching outdated and expired visions.And the biggest joke is they are looking for solution while they are the cause of the Lebanese problems.

"Series of obstacles" lol more like no one wants landfills in their areas (even though they're breathing it in from the trash on their streets, which is even worse than a nearby landfill) but this is Lebanon. No accountability like usual
