There is a drought and problems with water supply in the north-east of Syria. Among the reasons – Turkish airstrikes. According to the BBC, between October 2019 and January 2024, Turkey carried out more than 100 attacks on oil fields, gas facilities and power plants in the Kurdish-controlled Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES). These attacks have exacerbated the humanitarian crisis in the region, which is suffering from the effects of years of civil war and severe drought.
Turkey said it had struck the “sources of income and opportunity” of Kurdish separatist groups it considers terrorist.

Turkey, according to the statement, is well aware of the drought in the area of Northern and Eastern Syria. It added that poor water management and dilapidated infrastructure exacerbated the situation. AANES previously accused Turkey of seeking to “destroy the existence of our people.”
