Water shortages plaguing all of Turkey have taken their latest toll in the capital, where Ankara hospitals are experiencing dire water shortages even where critical operations are concerned. Tankers bringing in water to area hospitals are only supplying enough for one hour of need, and hospital personnel are reported to be desperate.
The well known Ankara Hacettepe Hospital has stopped accepting new patients in light of the water shortage, and has also begun discharging as many of its patients as possible. Gazi Hospital, also in Ankara, has followed suit, taking a break from accepting new patients due to the critically low levels of water available.
