The Chairman of the Irbid Greater Municipality Committee, Engineer Imad Al-Azza, announced that the cadres of the Municipality's Health and Environment Affairs Directorate, in coordination with the Customs Department cadres, managed to seize and destroy about 42 tons of spoiled and damaged bananas, unfit for human consumption, after confirming their unsuitability for use and the low levels of public safety in them.
Al-Azza explained that this operation came after the municipality received accurate observations and information about the existence of large quantities of fruits stored in unhealthy conditions. Immediately, the specialized inspection teams moved to inspect the concerned site, where the field examination showed that the seized quantities were stored in wrong ways and lacked the necessary cooling, not to mention the clear technical defect in the cooling and storage systems inside the warehouses, which led to the complete spoilage of the shipment and the change of its natural properties.
