flag Tehran’s main reservoir is near empty, risking water shortages for millions amid severe drought and extreme heat.

flag Tehran’s main reservoir, the Amir Kabir Dam, may run dry within two weeks, holding only 14 million cubic meters—8% of capacity—due to a severe drought with a 100% drop in regional rainfall. flag The dam supplies drinking water to over 10 million people, and water cuts have already been implemented in some neighborhoods. flag Officials have declared public holidays to conserve water during extreme heat, with temperatures exceeding 40°C. flag The crisis reflects worsening water scarcity in Iran, driven by climate change and mismanagement. flag The status of other reservoirs was not disclosed.
