Kyrenia Mayor tells residents to manage water

The Mayor of Kyrenia has issued a warning to residents of the city to minimize the use of water as water transferred from the Geçitköy reservoir to the region has completely stopped. 

Kyrenia Mayor Murat Şenkul made the announcement on social media on Monday morning.

In the statement on his social media account, Şenkul asked citizens to use water resources sparingly.

Şenkul’s statement is as follows:

“Good morning, Kyrenia.

“Since last week, according to what we’ve been told, we have not been receiving enough water due to power outages in the Geçitköy region, and we’ve been trying to make up for this shortfall with local sources.

“As of this morning, the flow of water to our main water tanks from Geçitköy, known as ‘Turkey Water,’ has completely stopped.

“We will try to provide water on a rotational basis using local sources. We are trying to find out exactly what the nationwide issue is and how long it will last.

“With this in mind, please use water sparingly“.
