Roje szaranczy w Sharm el Sheikh niszcza doslownie wszystko. Od Old Marketu az po Nabq, nie ostala sie chyba jedna cala palma, czy trawnik. Szarancza jest doslownie wszedzie. Wchodzi do mieszkan, pokoji hotelowych, restauracji, sklepow wyzerajac wszystko co jest tylko mozliwe. O plazowaniu mozna zapomniec. W Ras Mohammed zniszczony zostal las namorzynowy (podobnie jak i ten w Nabq).
Locusts swarm Sharm al-Sheikh
On Wed, 12/06/2013 - 16:46
Locust swarms attacked Naema Bay in Sharm al-Sheikh on Wednesday, sweeping through streets, restaurants and bazaars across the thriving tourist hotspot.
The Shura Council’s economic committee deputy Abdel Halim al-Gammal has criticized authorities’ tardy reaction in dealing with the pests, which also attacked Saint Catherine and Ras Mohamed and threaten species across the southern Sinai Peninsula.
Gammal also called for an emergency operation chamber, consisting of officials from the agriculture and environment ministries, to fend off the swarms.
Sayyed Megahed, head of the Sharm al-Sheikh renters’ coalition, reported locusts spreading across Naema Bay.
It marks the first time such large numbers of locusts have descended on Sharm al-Sheikh, he added.
