What you are seeing is an environmental massacre taking place on the Mat River, near the village of Ferrë Shkopet.
The trucks and excavators of the Salillari company every day erode the bed of this river to get sand and gravel.
This has caused its flow to be diverted, causing erosion in the agricultural lands of the farmers of the area.
For the residents these lands are the only source of living income they have. But this company is eroding these lands day by day.
Part of this riverbed, which was once used as a beach area, is now full of inert building waste. Residents say the Salillari company brings the waste overnight from Tirana, reports Top Channel’s Andi Bora.
