Sabha Cleaning Services Company workers strike over shooting incident

The workers of the Cleaning Services Company in Sabha have gone into a strike after the company’s car got shot and burnt by protesters against the place of the litter in the city.
The head of media office in the company, Ali Al-Jouda, said Tuesday the strike came after the road to the litter place was blocked by the residents of the nearby neighbourhood.
He added that the residents did so because they said that unpleasant smell is coming out of the garbage thrown there everyday, so some of them opened fire on two cars of the company’s workers and burnt one later, threatening the driver with murder if ever returned there.
