The Euphrates floods homes and farmland in al-Dalha, with clogged drains threatening farmers' season

al-Dalha, Syria ·

The rising water of the Euphrates has flooded homes and farmland in the village of al-Dalha, in the southeastern countryside of Raqqa, damaging crops and trees. Floodwaters have also cut the roads leading to the village, and residents are calling for urgent action to open and clean the agricultural drains and drain the water.

The Euphrates is Syria's longest river and flows through Raqqa province, so irrigation and drainage channels are central to farming in the area.
