Doha: A specialized team from the Department of Radiation and Chemicals Prevention at the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change seized a number of shipments loaded with dangerous and unlicensed chemicals. 

The Ministry stated this on its social media along with a picture of two "miscellaneous" plastic drums adding that legal measures were taken against the violators. 

The Ministry called for the necessity of obtaining the necessary approvals to avoid legal accountability.
