These migratory birds play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance by feeding on insects and rodents. Their presence naturally boosts agricultural production by reducing pests without the need for harmful pesticides. The area shown in the video directly benefits from this cycle, making the mass killing even more alarming.<\/p>    <p><\/p>    <p>Environmental activists and concerned citizens are calling on the Minister of Environment Tamara El Zein for stricter enforcement of hunting laws to protect these vital species.
