Guadeloupe: drinking water crisis and complaint against France before the European Commission
In October 2026, Guadeloupe is experiencing a crisis in access to drinking water, aggravated by persistent drought. On November 4, the Regional Health Agency (ARS) announced the lifting of tap water consumption bans in Petit-Bourg, Baie-Mahault and Le Moule, health checks being compliant with regulations. On November 10, the Alliance Caraïbe Souveraine association filed a complaint against France before the European Commission for non-compliance with the drinking water directive, chlordecone contamination and sargassum strandings.
