Water Has Not Flowed in Mardin, the City of Civilizations, for 4 Days 

Citizens who have been left without water due to the water outage since April 20 reacted to the authorities.

Citizens stated that Mardin was left abandoned and we have been living without water for 7 days in Mardin, the city of civilizations with a history of 5 thousand years. The country was left abandoned. Neither the deputies nor the administrators support it. Hasn't a malfunction been resolved for 4 days? We cannot find water to perform ablution and prayer. We carry canisters of water from the fountains to wash our faces in the morning. What era do we live in? We also call it a tourism city. We do not meet the water needs of tourists coming to the city.

I wonder if our representatives in Ankara know that there is a water shortage? We live without water for 4 days. Dear President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, we know how much you love this city. Please hear our voice. ” They reacted like this.

Some citizens, who buy water by tanker at high prices, wanted the authorities to find a solution to this problem.

In the announcement made on its social media account, MARSU Water flow to the areas fed by the line, especially Kızıltepe and Artuklu districts, was provided as of 20.04.2024:22.04.2024 on 23. We thank you for your understanding and present it to your information.” He included his statements.

However, it was stated that the water that was expected to be provided has still not flowed from the taps for 4 days.
