(JB) Residents in Differdange were advised not to drink water from the tap on Friday, after tests revealed the water was unfit for human consumption.
Differdange commune raised the alarm after tests revealed that the water system contained high levels of bacteria, making it unsafe to drink.
It advised all residents to boil water for 10 minutes before direct consumption and recommended tap water not be used for washing salads, vegetables and fruit which may be consumed raw.
Commune chiefs and technicians are currently working to resolve the situation and will notify residents as soon as the water quality improves.
