Neighborhood without water for two weeks

HAVANA, August 13 (José Antonio Fornaris, Cuba-Verdad / www.cubanet.org) - Residents of Pinar Street, in Havana's Arroyo Naranjo municipality, have been without water for two weeks and don't even know why.Resident Magalys Felipe Valdés said the faucets just dried up on July 27 without any apparent reason, adding that the local government representative has not been able to find any answers in that time.

Valdés said residents have agreed to write a letter to the municipal headquarters of the Communist Party seeking a solution to their problem, because they have to hand carry water from four blocks away.

"They haven't sent a tank truck either, which would have provided some relief," she said.
