And there was water in Paulilatino, a town gripped by a water crisis that has led to severe restrictions in recent weeks, with no supply for many hours of the day.

Mayor Domenico Gallus was on site this morning when a drilling machine uncovered the resource from a well that will be set up to "hopefully" ensure the supply, the mayor said.

"Now we're waiting for the water and soil analyses and the flow tests, and then we hope to resolve the issue. All the conditions are there."
