Euphrates Flood Harms 2400 Syrian Families
The provinces of Deir Ezzor and Raqqa in Syria experienced a state of alert due to the flooding of the Euphrates River, which was caused by opening the Euphrates Dam gate in response to a massive water surge from Turkish territories, estimated at around 2,000 cubic meters per second. The flood resulted in the deaths of three children, the drowning of another, and the disappearance of a child. Additionally, 78 water stations and dams were affected, and 2,400 families suffered damage to their homes and agricultural lands. Electricity lines were also impacted, worsening the humanitarian and agricultural situation. The government has undertaken evacuation measures and reinforced barriers to address the aftermath.
