Former parliamentary authorities have issued severe warnings regarding the escalating pollution rates in rivers and waterways, noting that the continuous discharge of untreated waste through so-called "black corridors" poses a severe threat to the ecosystem and public health. Relevant entities emphasized that this worsening phenomenon, particularly in the capital, requires direct and strict intervention from the highest executive levels to halt violations and hold perpetrators accountable. Amid declining water levels and climate change repercussions, experts stressed the necessity of enforcing environmental laws and enhancing public awareness to protect rivers as a vital lifeline for the country's water and food security.
