Dam reservoirs in Iran hold slightly more than 23 billion cubic meters of water, the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) reports.

The Ministry of Energy said almost 21.7 billion cubic meters (bcm) of water flowed into the country's dams from the start of the water year to the end of last week (the water year starts in late September). That's 3.1 bcm more than the previous year.

The water output from Iran's dams was 17.8 bcm from September to last week, a 32.7 per cent increase from the 12.8 bcm reported for the previous year.
