    An ancient heritage and historical civilization, the marshes of Iraq, or as they are called “the Venice of the Middle East”, inestimable beauty and wealth, subject to perishing and suffering from thirst; As a result of many reasons, and one of the affected are the “rural people.” Despite the inclusion of this unique environment in the world on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016, this achievement did not spare it, or keep it from the danger of drought.


    *the reasons
     
     In the marshlands of southern Iraq, an unprecedented drought caused new migrations that affected hundreds of families, as well as losses in livestock and crops, which prompted a number of concerned Iraqis to move, including Iraqi activists and bloggers who launched a wide campaign on social media under the title “Save The Marshes of Iraq".

    These areas are witnessing a severe drought this year due to the lack of rain in the last winter season, in addition to the encroachment of neighboring countries on Iraq's water quotas, and the closure of the tributaries of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers that originate from their lands.

    According to an AFP report, large areas of the once fertile Hawizeh marshes, which straddle the border with Iran, have dried up and their vegetation has turned yellow, and areas of the Chabayish marshes, which are popular with tourists, suffer the same fate.

    While Turkey is building dams steadily, Iran diverts the course of the rivers so that it does not reach Iraq, and it has cut off the Karkheh River, which flows into the Hawizeh Marsh, so the percentage of water imports to it has become zero. significantly on the level of agriculture in Iraq.
    These citizens continue in an interview with Alsumaria News, "The orchards of hundreds of dunums of citrus cultivation, such as oranges, in Diyala Governorate have disappeared, in addition to palm trees, which were greatly affected by drought and lack of water."

    *solutions
     
     Externally, although the solutions to the drought crisis are as clear as the sun, through the caretaker government’s resorting to an agreement with the watercourse countries, and the demand to increase Iraq’s water quotas, it has not reached any formula for dialogue with Turkey or Iran.

    Internally, Iraq suffers from great waste and waste in the waters of the Tigris and Euphrates tributaries, and the water reserves must be preserved, this was confirmed by the Director of the National Center for Water Resources Management Hatem Hamid.

    Hamid added in an interview with Alsumaria News, "We cannot empty the water storage currently, so we are managing it in a sustainable manner to secure drinking water on a permanent basis, noting that" the sectors that have been greatly affected are agriculture and the marshes, as they depend heavily on the water reserves in the dams. He

    continues, "The agricultural plan for the winter season has been reduced to 50 percent, as well as the current summer season, in addition to the marshes, so that the water releases to them have been reduced by the same amount."
    Other officials in the water resources added in an interview with Alsumaria News, "The currently approved plan includes preserving water reserves and avoiding its waste, despite the impact on agriculture and the marshlands, as the absence of cooperation from neighboring countries deepens the seriousness of the situation."

    * Effects of dehydration
    There are many crises that Iraq suffers from, including unemployment, poverty and disease, but when the alarm bells reach the water, here stands the lives of Iraqis, and as it is known that “water is the lifeblood,” so the lack of releases and Iraq’s water quotas threaten 40 million people.

    In turn, Adviser to the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture, Water and Marshlands, Adel Al-Mukhtar points out that "water resources are not able to solve the water crisis.
    Al-Mukhtar explains that "Iraq is threatened with complete drought, if the rains do not fall by the end of the current year," stressing "there is an international failure towards the marshes."
    He shows that "the marshes suffer from neglect and negligence, and the Turkish carrot dam will kill Iraq," expressing his astonishment at "the Iraqi government's silence regarding the water file."
