On the crowded streets of Gaza, horse-drawn carts continue to carry goods and agricultural produce, providing a vital service but creating a sanitary problem that one group wants to solve with diaper-style bags to keep the roads clear of manure.
在加薩擁擠的街道上，馬車持續載運貨物和農產品，提供重要的服務，卻也創造出衛生問題，一個團體想用尿布式袋子來解決，以保道路沒有馬糞。
As well as the smell and flies they attracts, piles of manure are an unsightly blight, said municipal sanitary worker Saher Khattab, who drives a horse-drawn cart to collect garbage.
駕駛馬車收集垃圾的市政衛生工作者薩哈爾．哈塔卜說，除了氣味和吸引蒼蠅外，成堆馬糞也是一種有礙觀瞻的禍害。
The bags, attached to the rump of donkeys and horses that ply the streets, are intended to eliminate the problem at the source, at the same time collecting a source of natural fertilizer that can be used in nearby farm land.
這種袋子固定在穿梭於街道的驢子和馬匹的臀部上，旨在從源頭上消除問題，同時收集可用於鄰近農田的天然肥料來源。
"We are keen to preserve a clean environment, keep our streets clean, and maintain a civilized situation," said Anwar Al-Ghawash, one of a group of activists promoting the initiative in Deir Al-Balah town in the southern Gaza Strip. （Reuters）
