A surge of torrents has reached the Tigris River from Iran, attributed to recent heavy rains. This influx includes approximately 25 cubic meters per second of water from several valleys through the northern Shamshir outlet, with expectations of increased flow shortly.
The Iraqi Ministry of Water Resources announced the arrival of significant torrents to the Tigris River from Iran. Engineer Saadi Mahdi Saleh, head of the Water Resources Division in Ali al-Gharbi, reported that heavy rainfall in the border regions has led to this influx. This new wave entered through the northern Shamshir outlet after two days of extensive precipitation.
In summary, heavy rains in border areas between Iraq and Iran have resulted in increased water flow into the Tigris River. The current flow is approximately 25 cubic meters per second from the northern Shamshir outlet, with additional smaller torrents contributing to water levels. Authorities are monitoring the situation to optimize water management.
