Coastal residents struggle to find freshwater in winter

With the onset of winter, residents of Bangladesh’s coastal areas face a water crisis. As the weather dries up, it becomes difficult to find freshwater to drink and use for daily chores. In many cases they have to rely on stored rainwater or travel significant distances to collect it. The people of Dakop’s Kalabogi area are currently enduring this hardship. The winter weather has also dried out their farmland, causing the ground to crack.
