Panorama of Veliaj/ Tirana, under the power of garbage

Residents of the capital have been facing a difficult situation for several weeks.

Tirana has turned into a mountain of garbage due to the non-cleaning of the bins by the municipality of Erion Veliaj.

But in addition to the remains, the lives of citizens are also endangered by the intact ruins.

Such a situation also appears at Radio Tirana at the entrance to "Kont Urani" street, near Kavaja Street.

Radio Tirana has started the works for years, but the works for its restoration seem to have been left half-way, since from the images provided by CNA, trash and fallen walls can be seen on the streets and sidewalks where citizens pass.

Thus, the lives of citizens are in danger from the bricks that can fall from moment to moment.

Behind these ruined walls, barely standing, hide mountains of trash.

The Municipality of Tirana has not taken any measures for this serious situation./ CNA

Garbage on "Mujo Ulqinaku" street

CNA has carried out an observation of garbage in Tirana, since the capital has been covered with garbage for several weeks.

CNA has found that the bins are overflowing with garbage, so much so that the garbage has become a "mountain" on the ground.

The verifications showed that the garbage was left for a long time without cleaning.

Sources near the Municipality of Tirana told CNA that the center of the capital, the visible area of ??the "Block" and the area where there is movement of young people, are cleaned, while in other areas the garbage is left behind.

CNA has brought images from different areas of Tirana that have "invaded" the road and polluted the entire capital.

Yesterday evening, CNA filmed several other scenes in the capital, specifically on "Mujo Ulqinaku" street, near the Catholic Church on Kavaja Street.

Garbage on "Mujo Ulqinaku" street

As can be seen from the video, the bins are filled beyond their capacity and the garbage is spilled on the ground. Residents of the area told CNA that this situation aggravated by garbage has been going on for several days, while the Municipality of Tirana has ignored the garbage situation.

The same situation also occurs on Kavaja Street, near the Ministry of Health.

In fact, garbage has not only covered Kavaja Street, but almost every neighborhood of the capital. The municipality of Tirana continues to collect taxes from citizens for cleaning, but also for the capital's non-existent incinerator, despite the fact that the streets are stinking of garbage./ CNA

Obsessed with garbage, the garbage man, the head of the thieving directors of the Municipality of Tirana, called the de facto owner of the incinerators or the head of 5D and the so-called zdroms, Erion Veliaj forgets to clean the city. ( READ HERE )

Perhaps it has already become a habit not to take responsibility for the thefts that are done to the citizens every day through the incinerator that does not exist, extorting from the poor Albanian taxpayers about 30 million euros per year for the waste and leaving them surrounded by trash.

For weeks, CNA has been out on the ground every day to closely observe the state of the city.

Today we conducted the next observation. Saturday afternoon, Tirana all covered with garbage.

While surveying the main streets of the city, the first sight we see are the overflowing garbage bins, with garbage spread in every corner of the capital.

These are the views that come only 100 meters from the headquarters of the SP, at the Central Post Office.

As you can see from the photo, this road is overrun with trash. We continue in another area.

These views come from the Çam market in front of Konstandin Kristoforidhi school. Even here the situation is alarming.

Next we go to the Palace of Violeta Manushi. 5 bins full of trash, have started to spill on the street.

While behind Piazza, the situation is this.

Garbage, garbage and only garbage.

This is what you see all over town. Today is Saturday and the movements in the city are reduced, but again in every corner of the neighborhoods you find trash.

For all this pollution, for the fact that Tirana is one of the most polluted cities in Europe, there is one responsible and that is the mayor Erion Veliaj.

Although he is tasked with cleaning the city, Veliaj chooses to deal with intrigues and scenarios to sabotage the meetings of his colleagues.

Denunciations will follow..../ CNA

Garbage has taken over the entire city. This time they went behind Prime Minister Edi Rama's back.

These recent photos, which show the garbage outside the bins, are not far away, but behind the Prime Minister's Office, at the intersection of RTSH.

As you can see the pictures speak for themselves, the bins are overflowing, there is even trash outside the bins.

This situation happens near the office of the Prime Minister, in one of the most frequented streets of the capital, the bins are not only full of garbage but they no longer hold and are left outside.

Mayor Erion Veliaj continues to leave the capital in a scandalous state, where the smell of garbage reeks everywhere, and now even behind the Prime Minister's back./ CNA

Gjendja e plehrave vijon të jetë një shqetësim i shtuar sëfundi në lagjet e kryeqytetit.

Kjo është pamja e fundit që na vjen nga një zonë mjaft e populluar e Tiranës.

Ashtu siç shihet koshat e plehrave janë tejmbushur dhe për pak do të zënë trotuaret.

CNA prej javësh me radhë ka denoncuar rastet ku zona të ndryshme të kryeqytetit janë mbytur nga plehrat, duke u kthyer në një rrezik për shëndetin e qytetarëve.

Muaji Gusht shënoi muajin më të ndotur, me plehrat kudo në çdo cep të Tiranës të përhapura në rrugë dhe erën e keqe që kundërmonte kudo./ CNA

Garbage collected in various areas of the capital under the direction of the mayor Erion Veliaj has turned into the ugliest sight that can be done to a country that, according to government figures, gathers millions of tourists from all over the world.

August is the month that brings out Tirana, which stinks from bad smells, from a massive pollution of the environment and danger to the health of the citizens.

CNA is committed to bringing images from different areas of Tirana where images speak louder than words.

These are the views coming from " Astiri " today, rubbish spread everywhere.

We continue with the "Don Bosco" area, the same view.

This is the "Bryl" area, occupied by garbage.

The situation is worrying and it is a red light, an alarm bell and a danger to the health of the citizens, who have to face every day this ugly picture of the capital under the leadership of the mayor Erion Veliaj./ CNA

CNA has long denounced the scandalous situation with waste, as garbage has covered the neighborhoods of Tirana.

In every area, waste bins are overflowing and garbage is "pouring" on the streets for days.

In addition to a not at all dignified panorama for a capital city, the unresolved waste situation in Tirana is endangering the health of citizens every day.

On Thursday, CNA made an observation on the ground, in some of the most populated neighborhoods of Tirana.

We start with " Astiri ", an area in which this panorama of remains is common.

" Don Bosco ", a highly populated area, but with garbage on the streets and uncleaned bins.  

The same situation occurs in the " Brryl" area .

These were just some of the neighborhoods of Tirana choked by garbage, but the same situation is present in the entire capital.

The mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, upon his arrival at the head of the municipality, testified that he was obsessed with trash.

With the non-existent incinerator, he took tens of millions of euros from the taxes of poor citizens, while he has left Tirana under the power of garbage.

The incinerator affair costs over 130 million euros, but the garbage "flows" into the streets of the capital. The one who propagandized for the cleaning of Tirana, today has left the latter drowned by waste.

CNA will continue to bring images of the scandalous situation in the neighborhoods of the capital, while we showed the condition of different areas this Thursday./ CNA

Garbage in Yzberisht

For several weeks, Tirana has been "occupied" by garbage.

Different neighborhoods of the capital have been "smothered" by garbage.

CNA is bringing dozens of photos through a gallery, where you can see how the overflowing bins were left without being cleaned for days by the Municipality of Tirana.

Although this municipality led by Erion Veliaj pays about 30 million euros per year to Tirana's non-existent incinerator, the waste is left untreated.

In addition to the not-so-pleasant sight of the streets filled with garbage, the residents of the capital have expressed concern about the bad smell and the appearance of any disease or infection.

The photos belong to different neighborhoods, starting from the former Block area, Pazari i Ri, Bulevardi i Ri, the former Train Station, and up to Laprakë, Yzberisht and Tufinë.

They show the aggravated situation in the capital, while the Municipality of Tirana collects taxes from residents every day and pays millions of euros for incomplete services./ CNA
