Cyprus is set to receive portable desalination plants from the UAE to tackle water scarcity issues following a fire at a stationary plant and dwindling reservoir levels. The generous donation from the UAE will deliver 15,000 cubic meters of drinkable water each day, a lifeline during the high tourism season. Cyprus is not only relying on short-term aid but is also strategizing long-term solutions such as constructing new desalination facilities and offering subsidies for privately owned hotel desalination plants. This move aims to ensure water security for the island nation and its residents, particularly during times of increased water demand.
