Listen to this article with the player at the bottom of the page
Algeria accuses Morocco of deliberately polluting the Mouilah River, a transboundary waterway that feeds the Hammam Boughrara Dam in the west of the country. Algerian authorities claim that tests have revealed the presence of nitrates, heavy metals, and pharmaceutical residues in the water. This pollution threatens a vital resource for the water supply of more than 1.2 million people. Algiers is considering taking the matter to international bodies, while Rabat has not yet responded to these accusations.
