This video sheds light on the environmental and health crisis caused by Lebanon’s quarrying and crushing industry, particularly in the Koura region and the villages of Kfarhazir and Bdehoun.
The report explains how cement companies extract their raw materials outside the approved master plan, bypassing legal regulations and deadlines, while highlighting the conflicting decisions between the Ministries of Industry and Environment and the appeals filed before the State Shura Council.
The video also examines recent studies revealing the dangers of fine particulate matter and airborne silica released from these quarries, which are considered by international health institutions among the major causes linked to cancer.
