(about 1 hour later)
Trash collectors in Seville have voted to end a strike that lasted 11 days and left the sidewalks of the city, a popular tourist destination, reeking with piles of garbage. Street cleaners accepted a deal negotiated by their union with the cleaning company on Thursday. City authorities estimate that there are about 7,000 tons of rubbish-filled bags lying around the ancient city, best known for its flamenco music and monuments including the city cathedral, the Alcazar fortress and the Golden Tower.
