SAEDNEWS: A worsening water supply crisis in southern Gaza is exacerbated by the destruction of infrastructure by Israeli troops, leaving local residents with minimal access to clean water.
According to SAEDNEWS, The water supply crisis in the southern Gaza Strip is becoming increasingly dire as Israeli troops continue to destroy vital water wells, tanks, and pipes. Reports from the Qatar-based Al Jazeera TV channel indicate that as many as four out of the five major water tanks in Khan Yunis have been obliterated, severely impacting the local distribution networks and virtually eliminating access to clean water for residents.
Local residents are voicing their desperation and urging for international support. One father expressed the dire situation, stating, "We stand in long queues for hours, hoping to get some clean water. My little girl and I are waiting in these long lines under the heat of the sun. We appeal to the whole world to help us at least get some clean water."
Another resident shared the challenges his family faces, saying, "We are really struggling beyond imagination to find some clean water. We walk long distances to find little, but it’s not sufficient for my family." As conditions worsen, the call for urgent intervention grows louder, highlighting the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region.
