Argentina: canal water suddenly turned red, video went viral

The water flowing from the canal in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, suddenly turned red.

According to the report of a foreign news agency, local people were scared when the water of a canal flowing in the suburbs of Buenos Aires suddenly turned red.

According to the report, the color of the water has changed due to dumping of textile dye or chemical waste from a nearby depot in the canal.

The Ministry of Environment said that water samples are being taken and tested and the real reason for the change in water color will be revealed soon.

The canal water can be seen in red in the viral video and pictures.

Residents of the area say that textile companies often throw toxic waste into the canal, which causes epidemics to spread.
