Minister of Internal Affairs Pançe Toshkovski addressed the public following a meeting of the Main Crisis Staff, confirming that the current supply of water from the Gostivar network remains non-potable and is restricted to technical uses. During the press conference, Toshkovski outlined the updated protocols for ongoing quality assessments. He announced that a standardized methodology for future analyses has been established, which will result in more frequent and comprehensive water quality measurements involving multiple institutions.
According to Toshkovski, the city will receive confirmation that the water is safe for drinking only after achieving three consecutive positive results for potable water across every designated measurement point within Gostivar. Until that threshold is met, the water supply must continue to be treated as technical only. Toshkovski emphasized the ongoing commitment to public health, confirming that the distribution of bottled potable water to residents of Gostivar will continue without interruption.
These measures are in place to ensure public safety while rigorous testing continues to monitor the quality of the municipal water supply. The updates underscore a commitment to transparency regarding the status of the water infrastructure in the region.
