The residents of Chlef province, like others in several Algerian regions, are facing ongoing suffering due to the interruption of drinking water for more than a month.
The residents of the province confirmed in circulating videos that the water crisis is no longer temporary, but has turned into a permanent problem that repeats throughout the year, whether in the summer, where temperatures rise, or during the winter, in the absence of effective solutions to ensure regular water supply. Despite the direct impact of this crisis on the daily lives of citizens, there is a complete absence of coverage of this suffering in the Algerian media in its various forms, where problems of thirst and lack of basic services do not receive sufficient media attention. In contrast, a large part of the media coverage is preoccupied with following the news of the floods that some areas in Morocco witnessed, which are natural phenomena that occur in several countries around the world, raising questions about the priorities of the local media and its role in conveying the concerns of the Algerian citizen and defending his right to basic services.
