Last update: 10 hours agoEuphrates Floods & Water Control: Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor are reeling after late-May flooding that damaged about 24,000 hectares of farmland, displaced over 2,400 families, and killed three children, with officials pointing to heavy rainfall and delayed snowmelt from Turkey—while activists argue the disaster is also tied to long-running, political water management and the reopening of the Ataturk Dam spillway gates.
