- 2022, high-water - 210 million cubic meters;
- 2021 - 132 million cubic meters;

At the same time, more than 70 settlements in Crimea are experiencing water shortages, said Anatoliy Kopachevsky, director of the scientific and production company "Water Technologies."
As of today, the situation with reservoir filling in Crimea looks as follows:
- Partyzanske reservoir is 22% full;
- Simferopol reservoir is 50% full;
- Ayanske reservoir is 40% full.
The Partyzanske reservoir has a water supply for 3.5-4 months. Given the dynamics of water withdrawal, there is still enough water there until December. Let's hope that there will be more rain
