Canal Water Turns Red and Emits Foul Smell; Residents Concerned.

Water in Sarandí Canal Turns Red and Emits Foul Odor
The Sarandí Canal, located in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, has mysteriously turned red, emitting a strong foul odor. The water in the Sarandí River, which flows through the outskirts of Buenos Aires, suddenly changed color, causing concern among residents of the Río de la Plata region.

"We woke up to the unbearable stench in the morning, and later we noticed that the canal water had turned red," said local residents.

The exact cause of this phenomenon has not yet been determined. However, images and videos of the blood-red canal have gone viral on social media. Preliminary assessments suggest that the discoloration may have been caused by red chemical dye used in textile industries. Several textile factories are located near the canal, along with factories that manufacture shoes and bags. Authorities suspect that chemical waste from these industries may have polluted the water.

Water samples have been collected and sent for testing. In the past, pollution has caused the canal’s water to change colors, including green and blue, according to locals. However, this is the first time it has turned red. Residents also recall that when the water turned yellow previously, the foul smell caused health issues for many people.
