The Vatican has turned off
its fountains, including those in St Peter's Square, due to the
drought-induced shortage that means Rome risks facing water
rationing.
"The Governorate of Vatican City State has decided to turn
off all the fountains, both the external ones located in St.
Peter's Square, and the interior fountains including those in
the Vatican Gardens," Vatican Radio said.
"The move is in line with the teachings of Pope Francis in
his Encyclical on creation Laudate Si".
