The operations are running as planned, and the company was able to meet the growing needs of the increase in pilgrims this year, said Mohammed bin Saleh Al-Ghamdy, NWC’s director of Makkah region.
NWC distributed 525,000 cubic meters of water to Makkah’s network, 292,000 cubic meters to the holy sites, and 112,000 cubic meters to Ashyab bottling station.
