Photos: Illegal miners invade Tano Anwia forest reserve again

Illegal miners are still invading the Tano Anwia Forest Reserve. This is happening despite recent raids in the Ashanti Region. Concerns about the forest's future are growing.

JoyNews' Environmental Journalist, Erastus Asare Donkor, reports on this issue. The legal concessionaire, Clean Jobs, is responsible for protecting the land. They recently sponsored military raids that seized 19 excavators.

On Tuesday, there was another raid in the reserve. The concessionaire made more arrests and seized four additional excavators. This highlights ongoing challenges in protecting the area.
