Residents Of Cape Town Face Worsening Drought Conditions And Water Restricitions

CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA - FEBRUARY 1: (EDITORS NOTE: Image was created as a still grab taken from video.) Police are now controlling Newlands Spring and limiting water collectors to carrying one 25 liter container at a time. Policemen guarding the entrance to the spring respectfully ask people to leave their extra containers at the entrance. People walk to the spring, fill a container, walk it back to their car, walk back to the spring with an empty container, then join the queue again and repeat. Diminishing water supplies may lead to the taps being turned off for the four millions inhabitants of Cape Town on April 16, 2018, known locally as Day Zero. Water will be restricted from 87 litres per day to 50 litres as temperatures reach 28 degrees later this week. Politicians are blaming each other and residents for the deepening crisis.
