📅 6 June 2020 📍 Albania

Activists and residents marched from Fushë-Arrëz Municipality to a branch of the Fan i Madh River after pollution linked to a copper processing plant. The protest was called “Don’t Kill Our Children”; residents connected industrial contamination to drinking water, farming, and the future of nine villages, while some feared joining because pandemic rules were being used to restrict gatherings.
