Kais Saied links summer fires to drinking water disorders

Republican President Kais Saied considered that the coincidence of summer fires with water disruptions was not such a coincidence. Saied made the remarks during her Sunday visit to the Bargo district of Siliana State for the tree festival, where forest sites were mirrored by fires.

In his speech, the President of the Republic confirmed that the judiciary will take on the task of identifying full responsibility and holding accountable the parties responsible for those events. These positions come in the context of the Presidency's tightening follow-up on files related to fires and drinking water disruptions in several regions.

The President of the Republic had overseen the planting of trees in Bargo district of Siliana on the occasion of the tree festival, and listened to people's hobbies about the damage caused by wildfires and lack of drinking water.

During his field tour of the region, Saied oversaw tree plantations in areas affected by forest fires. The visit coincided with a live hearing of local residents' concerns about the impacts of drinking water shortages and environmental damage caused by fires that have hit critical areas in the area.
