It is alternately called Lake Razazah ((アラビア語:بحيرة الرزازة)). Lake Milh is a depression into which excess water from the Lake Habbaniyah via the Euphrates River is diverted through a controlled escape channel or canal. The lake is listed as a wetland of international importance. The lake is rather shallow and water levels change with the seasons.
