Agriculture and the countryside of Damascus are preparing to launch an afforestation campaign and plant 10,000 plants on the airport road.
Details:
The Director of Forestry, Engineer Mutana Al-Kataa, the Director of Nurseries, Engineer Ayham Kokesh, and the Director of Plant Production, Engineer Maher Al-Daj, conducted a field tour of the forested site in collaboration with the Damascus Rural District.
The tour comes in preparation for the launch of the afforestation operation on the eleventh of the month under the slogan "plant a plant and leave a mark", to strengthen the coverage of vegetation and the expansion of green areas.
