TEHRAN, Nov 8, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Iran said Saturday it was planning to cut 
water periodically in Tehran, to limit consumption as the country faces one 
of its worst droughts in decades.

"This will prevent waste, even if it causes some inconvenience," Energy 
Minister Abbas Aliabadi said on state television.

Several local media outlets have reported that night-time cuts were already 
underway in the megacity of more than 10 million.
