Water shortage in Mayotte

Distribution of water to the population in Tsoundzou (commune of Mamoudzou, the capital) in Mayotte island, on October 21, 2023. Initially intended for vulnerable audiences, the distribution of bottled water was extended to the entire population in mid-November as local resources and hopes for a rapid exit from the crisis dwindled. In principle, each inhabitant is now entitled to one pack per week. Photo by Gregoire Merot/ABACAPRESS.COM

    Water shortage in Mayotte

    Combani hill reservoir, centre, commune of Tsingoni, Mayotte Island, on October 29, 2023. While the two hill reservoirs provide nearly 80% of the island’s water supply in normal times, the two reserves are inexorably emptied without the weak rains allowing them to fill. On October 29, 2023, only one week of operation was still possible according to SMAE, a subsidiary of Vinci that operates the network. The water towers are expected to intensify even more while the water already flows only from 16h to 10h the next day every third day in the taps. Photo by Gregoire Merot/ABACAPRESS.COM

          In Bandrele (south) as in several municipalities of the island, the distribution of water to the population is prevented by the outbreak of violence that affects the Mayotte island, on October 29, 2023. Here today, deliveries could not be made, the meager road network being impassable because of roadblocks. So only empty bottles are collected. Photo by Gregoire Merot/ABACAPRESS.COM
