@geocast._: Once one of Iraq’s largest inland water bodies, Lake Razzaza—also known as Lake Milh, or the “Salt Lake”—has lost much of its surface area over the past 35 years. Reduced inflows from the Euphrates River, upstream dam construction, prolonged droughts, rising temperatures, and intense evaporation transformed vast stretches of the lake into barren salt flats. Satellite imagery shows a dramatic retreat of the shoreline since the late 1980s, highlighting Iraq’s growing water crisis. In recent years, however, the lake has shown signs of recovery after wetter seasons and increased water releases into the system, allowing parts of the basin to refill. While the rebound offers a glimpse of resilience, Lake Razzaza remains only a fraction of its former size, underscoring the fragile balance between climate, water management, and survival in one of the Middle East’s most water-stressed regions. #LakeRazzaza #LakeMilh #Iraq #ClimateChange #WaterCrisis
