TUNISIA-DROUGHT/ Tunisia, a country in need of water
Augustin Le Gall / Le Pictorium
LePictorium_0324168.jpg
A woman draws water from the spring in the village of Ouled Nasr for her daily needs.
Ouled Nasr is an isolated rural village of 220 families in the El Haouerb region.
During the day, the women work in the fields and come in the evening to fill their jerrycans with water from the village's only spring. Some travel up to 10 kilometers along a rocky road to get there.
In 2013, the village was almost connected to the drinking water network, but the project was halted before connecting the houses to the Sonede water treatment plant.
The villagers are at their wits' end: "We keep protesting, and nothing happens. The politicians don't care. They have their air conditioning and their showers." – Ouled Nasr

Paris, March 5, 2025. The roots of a tree have managed to force their way into the walls of an underground gallery. Gypsum, which makes up part of the northern Parisian basement, is highly soluble in water, making gypsum quarries extremely fragile when exposed to humidity and vulnerable to water infiltration. Paris water technicians note any anomalies observed and probe them, particularly using miniature cameras. Depending on the size of the cavities, more or less liquid concrete is injected to fill the holes and ensure the stability of the basements.
