Risks of Water Shortages in Cyprus by 2028
August 18, 2026
This year has shown improvements in managing water resources in Cyprus, but the situation remains critical. Despite an increase in dam reserves, the country is at risk of severe drought in 2027 and 2028 without careful management. Rainfall in 2026 provided some relief, but the need for conservation and alternative water sources continues. Dam levels are at safety thresholds. Cyprus must act before it is too late.
