Heatwave hits water, electricity supplies across much of Iran

A severe heatwave sweeping Iran has disrupted water and electricity supplies in much of the country, with reservoir levels dropping to their lowest point in a century, state media said Tuesday.

At least 18 of the country's 31 provinces -- including Tehran -- have been affected by the extreme temperatures, which began on Friday and are expected to ease gradually by Thursday, according to meteorological authorities cited by state television.
