Moscow, 30 Muharram,1438 AH, 31 October,2016 , SPA -- More than 350 people in the southern Russian region of Dagestan have been hospitalized for intestinal problems after drinking contaminated water, dpa quoted TASS, the State news agency today. Recent flooding from heavy rains probably enabled germs to contaminate the water supply, the report said, citing authorities in the regional capital, Makhachkala. More than 250 children were among those hospitalized. Authorities warned that residents should boil water before drinking it or using it for washing or bathing in the next few weeks while the water supply system is being cleaned. -- SPA 12:16 LOCAL TIME 09:16 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
