Farmers in Wadi Chebouka built hill dams, and used pumps to withdraw the water towards their farms, to irrigate crops.

Authorities did nothing to enforce the law and stop the violation.

Words on paper; the enactment of a law to grant civilians access to unclassified information, data, and country expenses remains inactive due to a technical error in the transfer application for the requests to relevant departments.
