Tens of thousands of people gathered in Zagreb to protest the illegal dumping of hazardous waste in the Lika region, specifically in Gospić. The protest, titled 'March for Lika, March for Croatia', aimed to raise awareness about the issue and demand urgent action from authorities. Organizers estimate that up to 45,000 tons of electronic, sanitary, and plastic waste were illegally imported and buried between 2022 and 2025, contaminating soil and groundwater. Protesters called for a comprehensive environmental recovery plan, more protection for affected communities, solutions to waste management issues, and a moratorium on such imports.
