rafidainscope - Mosul Dam management denied the accuracy of reports talking about raising water releases to 1,000 cubic meters per second, confirming the stability of the water level at its current levels without any notable change.


Sources explained that water releases from the dam have remained stable for several days at 600 cubic meters per second, with no official decision to increase them, pointing out that determining levels of reducing or increasing releases is contingent upon

incoming water revenues and the strategic storage of the dam, which has reached excellent levels.


The process of managing and adjusting water release quantities depends primarily on the balance between incoming inflows and the volume of available water storage in the dam, in addition to evaluating the actual reserve needs for the governorates of the Tigris River basin.
