Within a week, a specialized team of the 8 regiment of the Folgore paratroop brigade removed - by means of operating machines - over 1000 cubic meters of debris that obstructed the outflow of rainwater.
The work was carried out at the request of the local communities, following the heavy seasonal precipitation that causes considerable water stagnation, with consequent increase in the risk of contracting malaria, which in Central Africa is the main cause of mortality for children under 5 years (given UNICEF).
In the coming weeks, army engineers will carry out work to improve the security of the Central African airport.
