Rome Mayor Virginia Raggi on Friday
demanded that central government intervene to avert the threat
of water being rationed in Rome because of the drought
emergency. "It is intolerable that Rome should be deprived of
water," she said. "It would do enormous harm to the citizens, to
economic and retail businesses and damage Italy's image. I'm
worried, above all, about the supply of water to hospitals and
firefighters, which is of fundamental importance at the moment.
The government should intervene with the instruments it has at
its disposal".
