Report details attacks on Dissi water project
The Disi Water Conveyance Project, launched 14 years ago at a cost of approximately one billion dollars to alleviate Jordan's water crisis, has been repeatedly vandalized along its route. The ministry documented around 13,796 acts of sabotage from 2014 up to August 2023. Attacks on these water sources are among the primary causes of water loss, accounting for more than 70% of the total water deficit, with incidents increasing to 1,802 in 2025. These acts result in water losses estimated at tens of millions of cubic meters annually, lead to high maintenance costs, and deny households their right to access clean, safe water. Despite ongoing efforts employing modern technologies to combat these issues, the problem persists.
