Yesterday, Monday 19 November 2018, there were protests in Hatillo, San Cristóbal, about the lack of provision of water, with residents saying they have had no water for around two months and that they have to purchase it for between RD$50 and RD$75 a tank. They protested in the streets, throwing bottles, stones and garbage and burned tires and threatened to continue to protest if they did not receive a water supply.
The National Police arrived at the scene to restore order but there were delays on the 6 November highway at the Hatillo bridge from San Cristóbal to Santo Domingo.
