Europe's Apples Found with Hazardous Pesticide Residues

A group called Pesticide Action Network (Pan) Europe checked apples from 13 countries in Europe.

They found that most apples had traces of multiple pesticides, which can be harmful.

These pesticides are called 'cocktails' because they are a mix of different chemicals.

Some of these chemicals are very dangerous and can hurt our bodies.

The group says that the rules in Europe are not good enough to protect people from these harmful chemicals.

They want the rules to be stronger, especially to protect children.

The group also found that the amount of these chemicals in apples has been going up over the years.

They are asking Europe to do something about it quickly.
