Latest news … Dam 4 Eylül, where drinking water needs were met in Sivas until recent years, has reached the point of drying up with almost no snow and rain to the desired level in recent years. The old cemetery of the town of Kolluca came to light and was flooded when the waters of the dam receded. Only the remains of graves that have been underwater for years. Villagers, who could not get near the village cemetery because it was underwater, visited the graves of their relatives and prayed when the cemetery appeared years later. The dam, where islets also formed, was seen from the air with a drone.
“DAM NOW LIVE HIS LAST HOURS”
4 Eylül village chief Ali Pek stated that the dam is now in its last hours, saying: “The dam was completed in 2002 and started to retain water. Until recent years, water was supplied to the city center from here. The water in the dam has been drained due to the recent drought. Because it didn’t rain much. Our main source of this dam is rain and snow waters. The dam now lives its last hours. The water available now is very little water. Currently, the water is a minimum of about 50 meters. We estimate it at 50, but it could be more than 50 ”.
Turan Yener, a resident of the town of Kolluca, said that they approached the cemetery, which they could not get near in the past, with the withdrawal of water and said: “This year, the water has dropped a lot due to the lack of rain. There should be snow this season. We used to have 1-2 meters of snow here. This year there was no snow or rain due to the drought. Therefore, the water from the dam fell. When the dam was filled, this cemetery was completely submerged. We walked through the cemetery as you can see now. Our relatives and relatives sleep here. We pray. “We were reading our prayers from above because we couldn’t come here when there was water.”
