The Ministry of Water Resources confirmed, today, Friday, its preparations to confront the water scarcity in Diyala Governorate.
"The ministry is currently working on addressing the problems in Diyala, by transferring a quantity of water from a canal below Al-Khalis to a Sarya area to secure drinking water for the area," the ministry’s spokesman, Aoun Dhiab, said in a statement to the Iraqi News Agency (INA).
