Tree-cutting in Wafi Al-Tal Forest prompts concern
The article discussed the deterioration of Waqqi Al-Tal Forest in Ayn Al-Basha District, resulting from the cutting of dozens of ancient pine trees. An agricultural official confirmed that these operations were compulsory due to damage caused by the bark beetle, which led to the death of the trees. There were no human attacks or unjustified logging. He explained that the cutting was a last resort measure to control the spread of the pest and reduce the risk of fires, with harvested wood being transported to forestry stations. This situation raises questions about the effectiveness of forest protection plans, especially since, despite control efforts, the number of pines continues to decline. This underscores the need to strengthen reforestation efforts and address the causes of drought and diseases threatening the vegetation cover.
