Hydro-terrorism in Iraq and syria
Hydro-terrorism, a form of terrorism in which water is the tool or the target especially in water-scarce regions.
On 7 August 2014, ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) took over Mosul dam of Iraq and the control of the lifeline of civilians leading to dried taps and inevitable thirst. People started migrating for survival leaving approximately 600,000 residents remaining in the city of Mosul, Iraq.
The issue became more decisive because the Islamic State doesn’t seem to manage water works along the Tigris and Euphrates with entailed accomplishment.
According to reports, Iraqi engineers have already exhorted the brewing risk of its subsidence and the situation could be more disastrous than expected. They pointed out that pressure on the dam’s compromised structure was building up rapidly as winter snows melted and more water flowed into the reservoir, bringing it up to its maximum capacity.
According to engineers and officials of Mosul dam, it needs regular checking and overhaul and absence of which could result in collapsing of the dam and extermination of tens of thousands of people.
