How long will the water stock in Algeria last? Minister of Water reveals

The Minister of Water, Lounes Bouzegza, revealed that the current water stock at the country's dams is sufficient to meet the needs of families for up to two years, emphasizing the need for effective management of water resources to ensure a regular and continuous supply of drinking water, especially during the summer.
