March Water Inflows Record in Cyprus, Yet Caution is Needed
April 2, 2026
This March, Cyprus recorded a decade-high for water inflows into reservoirs, reaching 35 million cubic meters. However, the overall reservoir capacity remains low at 31.5%, which creates a cautious optimism. The head of the Water Development Department, Iliana Tofa, warns about the impacts of climate change and the need for sustainable water management solutions. Despite the positive results in March, authorities are focused on reducing water losses. Cyprus remains in a semi-arid zone, requiring careful management of its water resources.
