The Supreme Council for Environment and Urban and Rural Promotion in Khartoum State, through its General Directorate of Environmental Impact Assessment, announced on Sunday the launch of field visits to fuel stations. According to the council’s media office, the plan aims to cover fuel stations across all localities in the state.
