With support from Turkey, water supplies have reached 35 villages in northern Syria’s Tal Abyad district after being disrupted for more than a year due to the sabotage of water and electricity networks by the YPG/PKK terror group. Following Turkey’s Operation Peace Spring launched against the terror group and the liberation of the towns of Tal Abyad and Ras al-Ain, the YPG/PKK regularly destroyed electricity networks, which eventually disrupted the functioning of water networks in the surrounding towns and villages. Samer Issa, the officer in charge of water resources in the local council of Tal Abyad, said the Turkish Irrigation Directorate in Sanliurfa installed pumps and electric converters to pump water in the region.
