Divers launch Yemen's first underwater cleanup campaign

A group of divers from the Two Moon Diving Club (TMDC) have started the first cleanup campaign of its kind in Yemen- an underwater and beach cleanup. The cleanup campaign began October 30, and lasted two full days on Kamaran Island in the Red Sea.

The first day of cleaning took place underwater as 5 scuba divers scoured an area of half a square kilometer.

Waste collected underwater included oilcans, plastic bags, pipes, plastic bottles, shoes, ropes and rusty metals. The team managed to collect 40kg of rubbish during its first dive.

Five divers from Yemen and Egypt participated in the cleanup campaign, and despite the bad weather and visibility they succeeded in collecting considerable amounts of garbage.
