Скачать или смотреть Back to Angola | Calueque Dam: An Unfinished Project and its Setting in Angola

The Calueque Dam, located approximately 14 km inside Angola. This structure, known locally as "Barragem Do Calueque," was notably half-completed. It featured a single working pump station which supplied water to a pipeline and canal system extending from the area of the former 51 Battalion to that of the 52 Battalion.

Below the dam, a bridge was situated. In 1984, this location was part of a ceasefire zone with the Angolan Army, with Angolan troops present on the opposite side of the bridge as part of the Joint Monitoring Force.
