The fishing sector in Vlora is also being punished by illegal competition. This is about dynamite fishing, which not only damages the ecosystem by killing marine species that are not for sale, but is also harmful to the consumer, who buys it at a slightly cheaper price, but who risks being poisoned.
These are images of dynamite fishing in the Gulf of Vlora. An activity that is both illegal and dangerous for the ecosystem and for people. And although this activity cannot be carried out without noise, its punishment still seems to be ineffective.
Licensed fishermen themselves state that this type of hunting is one of the factors reducing fishing productivity.
Also, fish killed with dynamite, according to the fisherman, are harmful for human consumption.
An illegality that causes a series of chain problems should not only be punished, but concrete measures should be taken to eliminate this type of phenomenon that also harms tourism in the area. (A2 Televizion)
