France 24 is joined by Kenzie Azmi, Campaigner at Greenpeace MENA, who describes Gabes as a Tunisian coastal city plagued by a half-century of industrial activity. “Gabes is a location that has already been impacted by a lot of industrial pollution and overfishing for the past 50 years. And so it really cannot take much more environmental impact. The community is really being devastated by the impact on its fresh water, on its marine life, and on its soil from neighboring industries.”
