		</div><p>Uncollected rubbish is piling up on the streets of the southern Bosnian city of Mostar – one of the Balkan nation’s main tourist destinations – since residents began blocking access to the city’s sole landfill.</p>
<p>They claim that it poses serious health and environmental risks. The landfill, located in a residential area, has operated since the 1960s.</p>

<p>It is supposed to be for non-hazardous household waste but protesters say authorities in recent years have allowed businesses to dump hazardous animal and medical waste and wastewater treatment sludge there.</p>

<p>Several hundred protesters started blocking access to the landfill 10 days ago, demanding it be decontaminated.</p>
<p>The protests were sparked by leaked water treatment test results that reportedly indicated a strong likelihood of dangerous concentrations in the sludge of highly toxic chemical pollutants known as PCBs.<br />
