Water Authorities Detail 2025 Al-Dessi Attack
The Disi Water Conveyance Project in Jordan, launched 14 years ago at a cost of nearly one billion dollars to enhance water supplies, has faced increasing challenges due to repeated attacks on the project’s pipeline. From 2014 until mid-August, the Ministry of Water and Irrigation recorded approximately 13,796 attacks on water sources, with 2025 being the most severe year, recording 1,802 attacks. Attacks on water lines account for more than 70% of water loss, as every 1% reduction in leakage saves about 5 million cubic meters of water annually, enough to meet the needs of 81,000 people. Officials state that water thefts and attacks on the network harm citizens’ rights and increase maintenance costs, with fines exceeding 8 million dinars. They emphasize that protecting water sources is a collective responsibility and a moral duty, warning that such assaults threaten the country’s water security.
