EUPOL COPPS supports community policing activity in Salfit
The Youth Council in Salfit and the Palestinian Civil Police (PCP) agreed to help farmers to harvest their olive groves in three areas in the Salfit district. The Police will help with the logistics and will participate in picking olives. The activity falls within Community Policing as well as within the Media and PR branch of the PCP, both concepts consistently supported by EUPOL COPPS. Public Relations as well as Community Policing are at the heart of the PCP activities, and aim at strengthening ties with all sectors of society. EUPOL COPPS reiterates our support to the PCP in their endeavors.

EUPOL COPPS Adviser visits illegal dumping sites in Al-Ram district
On the 26 September 2022, EUPOL COPPS Mission visited illegal dumping sites in Al-Ram district, south of Ramallah, to determine the extent of damage for the environment. The visit to the two areas — Jabaa and Qalandya — was arranged by Environmental Quality Authority, Governor of Jerusalem District and Al – Ram Municipality. The types of waste that the joint group witnessed on the illegal dumpsites includes different kinds of waste, such as construction waste, hazardous waste (asphalt, painting, electrical, sanitary installations, rubber, glass, plastic and metal). The joint team also noticed a strong smell of rotten organic material. On one of the dumpsites there was on fire, sending heavy smoke billowing out of the area, which poses a potential health hazard. “Open waste dumping has many grave outcomes such as low soil quality, ground water contamination and spread of deadly diseases. With human population multiplying in thousands, it is critical to come up with safer disposal options,” said Michael Ljungqvist, the Mission’s Adviser Environmental Investigations. EUPOL COPPS, which provides support to the Palestinian Civil Police and the Judiciary, has recently paid special attention to environmental issues in order to assist Palestinian counterparts in maintaining a clean environment.
