#Syria: following requests from residents amidst the water scarcity, a new solar-powered well was inaugurated today in Kuwiyah (Yarmuk Basin - W. #Daraa).

Pumping operations will begin tomorrow.

Until now, water had been pumped using a diesel engine, but it operated for only 2 hours a day as it was too expensive for the residents.
