Fotografija snimljena u Asuanu, Egipat, u julu 2018. tokom zadatka za The New York Times, prikazuje ribare kako rade na rijeci Nil.
Devedeset pet posto Egipćana živi uz Nil ili u njegovoj bujnoj delti, a rijeka im osigurava gotovo svu vodu. Brinu se da bi, ako se hidroelektrana vrijedna 4,5 milijardi dolara koja se gradi u Etiopiji prebrzo napuni, to moglo drastično smanjiti njihovu opskrbu vodom.
Photo taken in Aswan, Egypt, in July 2018 during an assignment for the New York Times, shows fishermen work on the Nile River.
Ninety-five percent of Egyptians live along the Nile or in its teeming delta, and the river provides nearly all their water. They worry that, if the $4.5 billion hydroelectric dam being built in Ethiopia is filled too quickly, it could drastically curtail their water supply.
