KDRyan Dam flows reduced amid Euphrates rise

Gradual Increase in Bed host Dam Flows and Warnings of Rising Euphrates River Level in Deir Ezzor The Emergency Response Committee announced a gradual increase in the flows from the Bed host Dam. The incoming water volume will be increased from 1,000 to 1,100 m³/sec starting September 15, and then to 1,200 m³/sec beginning September 22. This will cause the Euphrates River level in Deir Ezzor to rise by 195 cm starting September 17, reaching 220 cm with the second wave by September 24. Authorities have called on residents to exercise caution, avoid swimming or approaching the river, and stay away from inundation of livestock and agricultural equipment due to the rising and flowing waters. These measures come alongside the announcement by the Euphrates Dam Authority of increased water releases resulting from continued high inflows from the Turkish side, with close monitoring of the water situation and coordination with relevant agencies to ensure public safety.
