The Cannavius dam in Paphos province, the fourth largest dam in Cyprus, overflowed today.
This 17 million 168 thousand cubic metres of water capacity supplies large areas of Paphos province as it is located at the highest altitude of all the dams in Paphos.
This is the sixth time it has overflowed since it was built in 2006.
So far in Paphos five of the province's eight dams have overflowed. A total of 258 million cubic metres of water has been accumulated in all the dams and the fullness of the dams is approaching 89% of their capacity.
This year is the third best in the last decade in terms of water flow in the dams.
