The south branch of the Man-made River Authority (MMRA) confirmed that power was cut off on the entire area of the wells supplying Al-Hasawna System in Jafara, which threatens the water supply to Tripoli and other cities in the north.

A source from the Emergency Committee of Al-Hasawna system explained that the well fields require a special power plant with a capacity of 50 MW to avoid frequent interruption in power supplies.
