Low Water Levels in Cyprus Reservoirs

February 9, 2026

The water levels in Cyprus' reservoirs are extremely low, with only 13.7% of total capacity filled. The Kouris dam, the largest in the country, is at 12.2% capacity. Last year, levels were better at this time, and experts warn that spring is unlikely to bring improvement. Images from Kouris reveal the seriousness of the situation. This raises significant concern regarding the water supply in Cyprus.
