The Algerian government is examining an urgent plan to confront the scarcity of drinking water in a number of regions of the country with the aim of avoiding other popular protests such as those witnessed in Tiaret Governorate on the days of Eid al-Adha.

The Presidency of the Government held a meeting, led by Prime Minister Nadhir Arabawi, to discuss the measures taken to provide the population with potable water, within a special program to alleviate water shortages and achieve sustainability in water provision.

The Minister of Water Resources, Taha Darbal, explained, during a visit to Tiaret Governorate, that 27 billion dinars (about 200 million dollars) have been allocated for urgent projects to provide water in the affected areas.

Darbal announced the launch of a new program to reduce pressure on water, with the possibility of involving farmers in the future, pointing to a project to supply the city of Tiaret with an additional 10,000 cubic liters per day, increasing the amount distributed to 34,000 cubic metres.

Russian intelligence explained in a statement that the White House is planning to discredit the ruling “Georgian Dream” party by promoting allegations linking the problems that Georgia is suffering from with Russia.

Intelligence added that Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili will play a pivotal role in this plan, as she will give an interview to an American media outlet in which she accuses the Georgian government of obstructing negotiations to join the European Union and warns of the disastrous consequences of rapprochement with Moscow.

Bangladesh is witnessing widespread unrest against the backdrop of student protests against the quota system in government jobs.

The Bangladeshi authorities issued a decision to stop the mobile Internet network throughout the country, in an attempt to ensure the security of citizens, according to what was stated by the Minister of Communications, Zunaid Ahmed Palak.

The events came after the University Grants Commission in Bangladesh ordered the closure of universities and the immediate evacuation of students from the buildings for security reasons. The decisions included the closure of secondary schools, colleges and other educational institutions.

The roots of these protests go back to the quota system in government jobs, which allocates 56% of these jobs to specific groups.
