In the surrounding grasslands owned by one of the community's families, there is a cistern located near the military base, most often used in winter. According to residents, the cistern was damaged as a result of military training blasts in the surrounding area so that it is not able to store the water optimally and sometimes the residents of the locality are required to fill it with water that they purchase.
