(220825) -- EL KEF, Aug. 25, 2022 (Xinhua) -- Photo taken on Feb. 15, 2021 shows the construction site of the Mellegue dam in Tunisia's northwestern province of El Kef. In May 2016, China's power construction company Sinohydro won the bid to build a new dam over the river to replace the run-down old one. The Mellegua dam is scheduled for completion in September 2023. With a maximum capacity of 305 million cubic meters of water, it will play a significant role in protecting the ecological environment in Tunisia.
