A source for ARK: Alok station pumping water to a neighborhood in Hasakah

ARK News... Source from the city of Hasakah in Syrian Kurdistan said that, on Saturday, Alouk station pumped water to a neighborhood in the city.

The source added to ARK that the sacrifice came after an almost complete interruption for a year in the al-Nashwa neighborhood in the center of the city of al-Hasakah.

The suffering of the residents of the city of al-Hasakah in securing water continues amid an exacerbation of the crisis, especially in the summer.

According to the agreement that was agreed upon under the auspices of Russia - it was violated more than once -, the SDF must supply the cities of Serêkaniyê and Girê Spi, which are under the control of the armed factions, with electricity, and the latter must pump water from the Alouk station to the city of Hasakah and its countryside.

The understanding that took place under the auspices of Russia between the SDF and Turkey was often violated less than 24 hours after the announcement of the operation of the water pumps at the Alouk station to pump water to the city of Hasakah and its countryside, amid an exchange of accusations between the two parties.

Turkey confirms that the SDF cut off the electricity supply to Aluk station, in addition to the accumulation of faults inside the station's wells, is the main reason for stopping pumping water from Aluk station, and the PYD administration points the finger at Turkey and confirms that it uses the water of Aluk station as a pressure card.

Many humanitarian organizations called for neutralizing the Alouk station from conflicts, preventing any party from using it as a blackmail card, and subjecting its management to a specialized and independent team, under international supervision and control.

There have been repeated appeals to cut off the city's water, with no signs of a solution.

Only the residents of Al-Hasakah pay the dispute tax, as they are forced to buy water of unknown origin from mobile tanks, which is often bitter, salty, or even polluted, which causes intestinal diseases, especially among children.
