Pale anxiety above the ammonia pipe, a scream on a baby’s face and tears that are not only unshed but foul-smelling.

This is the scene on Thursday at the former wood combine in Laç, where residents complain that drinking water has been coming out of the taps smelling of ammonia and feces. Residents say the situation has alarmed them, since for days they have been using water that may be heavily contaminated.
