Deputy Ministers Assess Water and Health Projects in Lahj’s Al-Maqatirah

Lahj:Deputy Ministers of Electricity, Energy and Water Adel Bader and Health and Environment Dr. Nasher Al-Qaud visited the Al-Maqatirah district in the Lahj province to evaluate public services and examine water and health projects.

According to Yemen News Agency, the delegation inspected damage to several water projects, including Al-Ashbout, Al-Anbwah, and Al-Olympia, reportedly due to Saudi airstrikes that have disrupted drinking water supplies to local residents.

Two other water projects, Karbat Al-Najiyah and Al-Karbah Al-Sufla, continue to function regularly. The delegation also visited local health facilities to assess their condition.

During discussions, the officials focused on restoring the damaged water systems and maintaining health services. Bader noted that the Saudi aggression on infrastructure exacerbates the suffering of civilians, while Al-Qaud emphasized the importance of rehabilitating health facilities.

An engineering team from the Ministry of Electricity, Energy and Water has been tasked with assessing the damaged projects and preparing a report on the rehabilitation work necessary to restore services.
