Nine Illegal Miners Arrested in New Crackdown.
In the ongoing fight against illegal mining, commonly referred to as "galamsey," nine individuals were arrested in a coordinated operation across several regions in Ghana. Law enforcement authorities seized and destroyed over 50 pieces of mining equipment during the raids. The operation is part of a broader effort by the government to curb the environmental damage caused by illegal mining activities, which continue to threaten Ghana’s water bodies and farmlands.
