South Korea Drought Hit
Firefighters deliver water from neighboring areas to the local treatment facility in Gangneung, South Korea, on September 1, 2025, as part of emergency efforts to address the ongoing drought. The reservoir, once a vital source of tap water for local households, has its water level plummet to just 14.4 percent of its normal capacity, prompting emergency measures such as water deliveries by sprinkler trucks.
