The company in charge of water management in Lanzarote, Canal Gestión, reported this Thursday water cuts in several municipalities of the island. 

Among them, the towns of Haría and Mala, in the municipality of Haría, the towns of Tahíche, Los Valles, Charco del Palo, Los Cocoteros in the municipality of Teguise; in Güíme in San Bartolomé

To this must be added the water cuts in the town of Tías, as well as in the town of Las Breñas in Yaiza

Apart from the points described above, Canal Gestión reports that there are "other incidents due to small breakdowns and scheduled maneuvers" that may cause alterations in the supply of specific streets. 

It should be remembered that deficiencies in the island's pipes and water channeling systems generate a loss of 56% of the desalinated water.
