Former Governor's Illegal Dams Demolished in Chihuahua

Chihuahua, Mexico – Former Governor César Duarte's illegal dams, recently revealed by Conagua director Efraín Morales, have sparked outrage.

The structures, visible in the accompanying video, have since been demolished. This highlights a critical issue of water scarcity in Chihuahua, where many farmers lack adequate resources. The video showcases the scale of the illegal operation and the subsequent demolition, underscoring the gravity of the situation.
