Dilaporkan oleh AI Gambar dihasilkan oleh AI
Gżira United FC is constructing at least six padel courts at Nicholl Ground on Manoel Island without a planning permit, prompting outrage from environmental campaigners and Momentum. The works on leased government land conflict with plans to turn the site—within Valletta's UNESCO buffer zone—into a national park, with critics demanding a halt and enforcement action.
Malta's Planning Authority has halted construction of padel courts on Manoel Island by Gżira United Football Club, following its investigation into activists' complaints reported earlier this week. Prime Minister Robert Abela confirmed the stoppage, stressing legal compliance on the club's leased site.
