After storm, Olaine supplies water via a barrel by the municipal building

Following a storm that struck on Saturday and disrupted local water supply, the Olaine municipality took steps on Sunday to ensure residents still had access to drinking water.

The municipality confirmed to the LETA news agency that water is being made available to residents via a barrel set up next to the municipal building. This arrangement allows people to obtain water while the consequences of the storm affecting the regular water supply system are being addressed.

The municipality is dealing with the situation on an operational basis, though no further details have yet been provided about the extent of the storm damage or when normal water supply will be restored.
