VOICED : Anxiety and hope as Italian port awaits S

The port of Gioia Tauro in southern Italy is preparing for the arrival of 60 containers with 560 tons of chemical agents used in weapons like mustard gas and nerve agents. These chemicals, linked to deaths in Syria, will be transferred to a US ship for disposal. The operation, overseen by the UN and OPCW, faces delays and uncertainty, causing concern among local residents and dockworkers. Despite safety assurances, the proximity to the village raises fears. Union members seek clarity, while some see the operation as prestigious. The port's economic struggles, with many workers on temporary redundancies, highlight the need for political action to secure its future.
