A water main break on New Year’s Eve in Berlin disrupted water supply to households across districts including Frohnau and Kreuzberg. The break, involving a nearly 100-year-old pipe, occurred in the Wedding area and necessitated extensive repairs. Although the damage could have been worse, emergency services worked quickly to restore pressure in the water system. Several areas experienced temporary outages, and two tram lines were affected, leading to transport disruptions. The repair efforts are expected to take significant time.
