Klirou Dam Overflows After Recent Rainfall

The Klirou Dam overflowed in the early hours of Saturday, following the heavy rainfall of recent days. This follows the overflow of the Pomos Dam. The Klirou community leader, Nikos Alexandrakis, stated that the water flow to the dam had increased significantly in recent days, leading to its overflow. The Klirou Dam, with a capacity of almost two million cubic meters, has overflowed in the past, specifically in February 2024, January 2022, and 2019. The dam's water is used to supply several communities and camps in the area.
