Napoli e l'immondizia sulla CNN

Naples rubbish crisis sparks health fears.
ROME, Italy (AP) -- The U.S. military in Naples is testing tap water and soil because of health worries from that city's pileup of sometimes smoldering rubbish.
Naples and the surrounding area are home to a sizeable U.S. military population who work at U.S. bases and NATO facilities in the area.
Samples have been taken from sinks and yards of residences used by military and civilian employees and their families.
Navy spokeswoman Lt. Cmdr. Wendy Snyder says samples are being analyzed in Germany and the results should be available in a few weeks.
Tons of garbage are blocking sidewalks and streets in the center of Naples and its suburbs. Angry residents have taken to burning rubbish.
Garbage problems have plagued Naples and its surrounding Campania region for years. Authorities have also blamed organized crime groups' infiltration of garbage collection services.
Earlier this month, the EU's executive commission began legal action against Italy over the crisis.
Premier Silvio Berlusconi will preside next week over an extraordinary Cabinet meeting being held in Naples that is devoted to the garbage collection crisis in the Mediterranean city.
Angry residents attacked firefighters on Saturday trying to extinguish burning garbage, authorities said Saturday.
Firefighters said the residents threw stones at them overnight and in one case attacked them with fire extinguishers. No injuries were reported.
The firefighters said police had to escort them while putting out more than 100 fires overnight and 30 Saturday morning. About a dozen other fires were burning, they said.
Italian television footage showed garbage set ablaze overnight and trash bins overturned in the city.
"We are unprepared and defenseless when faced with the aggression of criminals," Ugo Bonessio, chief firefighter in Naples, told Sky TG24. "I hope these acts end because in addition to harming us, they prevent us from giving help." |
