Over 1,500 people took part in a series of family-friendly activities organised by various entities within the Ministry for the Environment, Energy and Public Cleanliness during the Easter holidays.

These events aimed to encourage the public to enjoy open spaces while raising awareness about sustainability and the environment.

Minister Miriam Dalli praised the strong turnout, noting how encouraging it is to see families connecting with nature and benefiting from the green spaces being developed.

A highlight of the holiday program was Wirt in-Natura: Spring Edition, held at Buskett Gardens by Project Green.

The event featured an Easter Egg Hunt, K9 police shows, and performances by Tikka Banda and Ta’ Varna Folk Group. Various agencies, including ERA, Ambjent Malta, and Circular Economy Malta, contributed to hands-on activities about climate change and sustainability.

Ambjent Malta also led an Easter Adventure Challenge at Buskett and an educational biodiversity walk on Comino. The walk emphasised the ecological importance of Comino’s Marine Protected Area.

Meanwhile, the Energy and Water Agency hosted an Easter Egg Hunt at Chadwick Lakes, which included nature walks and games, supported by a free shuttle service. WasteServ’s Eco Magic workshop at the ECOHIVE Academy in Marsaskala rounded off the week with fun, interactive lessons on waste reduction.

Authorities at Manas International Airport detained five citizens of the Republic of Malta for attempting to illegally export wildlife specimens from the Kyrgyz Republic.

Photos of the cargo were shared to the Kyrgyz Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Technical Supervision.

The arrests were made during a joint operation by the Department for Bioresources Control and the Department for Combating Smuggling and Customs Violations.

The operation was part of a coordinated effort between the Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology, and Technical Supervision and the State Customs Service under the Ministry of Finance. Following the arrest, the suspects were handed over to the Environmental and Technical Supervision Service for further investigation.

Officials filed a total of eight administrative protocols against the individuals: five under Article 262 of the Kyrgyz Code of Offenses for the illegal export, transport, storage, and sale of wildlife specimens, and three under Article 261, Part 2, for illegal hunting or capture.

The violators were fined a total of 180,000 Kyrgyzstani soms (approximately €1,890). Additionally, a separate claim of 270,000 soms was filed for environmental damages caused to local wildlife.

All case materials have been transferred to law enforcement agencies, and investigations are ongoing.
