Recent reports have uncovered alarming data regarding the water supply in Gaza, revealing that almost three-quarters of drinkable water sources do not meet the safety standards. With the contamination levels rising, particularly due to sewage, public health is at extreme risk. Authorities warn that immediate intervention is required to prevent a potential health disaster that could further aggravate the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
The blockade enforced by Israel has critically hampered the delivery of essential resources necessary for maintaining water quality in Gaza. Without proper access to testing equipment and disinfectants, the already fragile water management systems are collapsing. As a result, many residents are left vulnerable to waterborne diseases, deepening the public health crisis amidst an already desperate humanitarian situation.
International bodies, including the United Nations, are urging immediate action to alleviate the water disaster in Gaza. Activists emphasize the need for the global community to pressure Israeli authorities to grant access to humanitarian aid and safe water supplies. Without the intervention of the international community, the future welfare of Gaza's population remains precarious, threatening to spiral further into chaos.
The United Nations and various aid organizations are raising the alarm regarding the shocking levels of contamination in Gaza's water supply. An emergency water quality survey conducted from December 1 to December 23 revealed that nearly 73% of drinking water samples and over 97% of domestic water samples lacked the minimum amount of chlorine needed to be deemed safe for consumption. Additionally, 19% of the samples collected were contaminated with sewage, with healthcare facilities recording a contamination rate of over 21%. These dire conditions have been exacerbated by Israel's blockade, which has restricted access to essential water testing equipment and disinfectants, leading to a breakdown of Gaza's water quality control system. Experts and humanitarian advocates are calling for immediate action to address this crisis before it leads to further health catastrophes among the population.America will never criticize js and only do whatever they say. They are their chosen people. End of story
Didnt EU send huge amoumt water pipes to Gaza to build infrastructure? And what Hamas did with those pipes - rockets.
Clean drinking water is essential for human life and for the Palestinian population to survive
Its great that Al Jazeera is talking about the problems of the poor people of Gaza. I wonder what problems their leaders (Hamas) have in Qatar?
What is HAMAS doind about it as regards to the hostage release? Israel did not block any aid. Stop this misinformation.
