[ad_1]
Reservoirs supplying Turkey’s most populous city, Istanbul, have seen their water levels drop to 18%. This volume will be enough for only 50 days if there is no precipitation during this period.
The data was provided by the Istanbul Water Resources and Sewerage Department. 18.07% is 156.9 million cubic meters out of 868 million. In April, reservoir stocks stood at 48.5% and have been steadily declining since then.
The city, home to more than 16 million people, consumes 3.1 million cubic meters of water every day. The department called on Istanbul residents to save water.
