Another two men were yesterday photographed hunting inside a protected area, BirdLife Malta said this afternoon.

The organisation said the two hunters were seen hunting inside the Ghadira Nature Reserve protected zone, a buffer zone around the protected wetland reserve which extended the Bird Sanctuary to prevent hunters from targeting birds around the reserve.

The incident was reported to the ALE and the location of the last whereabouts of the two men was pointed out. ALE officers went to search for the men, but BirdLife did not know whether they were apprehended.
