LA PAZ, Oct 6 (Reuters) - Under a scorching sun, more than three hundred Bolivians on Friday marched to a dusty plain near the Incachaca dam that overlooks the city of La Paz, gathering to pray for rain and an end to a severe drought that has threatened their water supply. The ten reservoirs that supply La Paz - one of the country's largest cities with about 2.2 million inhabitants - only contain 135 days of water combined, Bolivia's state-owned water company EPSAS has warned. [1/5]Indigenous women pray for rain near the Incachaca dam, in Incachaca, on the outskirts of La Paz, Bolivia October 6, 2023. Only scarce rain is expected due to the weather phenomenon known as El Nino, the national meteorological agency has said. El Nino, a warming of water surface temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific Ocean, is linked to extreme weather conditions.
