Greece is facing a serious water shortage that affects both the islands and the mainland of the country, warned public television ERT.
The Aegean island of Serifos continues to be in a water crisis for the fourth month in a row.
The northern Aegean island of Thassos is drilling new wells to meet water needs, while Agathonisi in the Dodecanese continues to use its two desalination plants despite high costs.
Platanias in Chania, Crete, is also in a state of emergency due to the need for irrigation.
The Municipality of Poligiros in Central Macedonia has urged residents and visitors to use water sparingly and avoid wasteful practices such as washing alleys, cars and streets.
The statement also noted that there is not enough water to irrigate agriculture and gardens.
Scientists recommend more cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions to the crisis. At least 14 districts in the country are on water regime.
