Palestinians protest desalination plant demolition
The water desalination plant in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza, which supplied thousands of Palestinians with drinking water, was destroyed in an Israeli bombing four days ago, worsening the severe water crisis in the strip. Dozens of Palestinians, including children and women, gathered in protest against the destruction of the plant, demanding its restoration and operation. They emphasized that the plant provided essential water for the residents of the area and the displaced people who had moved there. United Nations reports indicate that 70% of Gaza's water and sanitation infrastructure has been damaged, with up to 92% of the population experiencing water shortages; approximately 75% rely on water transported by trucks. Despite a ceasefire in place since October 2025, the Israeli army continues to carry out attacks in the region. The destruction of the plant is considered a violation of the ceasefire agreement and has increased the suffering of the residents.
