As summer approaches and water demand surges, residents of several villages in the commune of Tagounite, Zagora province are sounding the alarm over prolonged drinking water shortages.
According to local official Abderrahim El Othmani, some areas,such as Bni Sbih, already affected by last September’s floods, receive water only once every 16 to 17 days, with residents barely storing enough for two or three days.
The issue is compounded by the fact that water trucks supplying these communities draw from the same strained local sources. Despite repeated appeals to the commune leadership and local authorities, no sustainable solution has been implemented.
The situation also affects the town center, where the National Office for Electricity and Drinking Water oversees supply.
Daily outages and weak flow are becoming routine. With July and August looming, locals fear a deepening crisis and urge urgent intervention to ensure safe, reliable access to water.
