Gaza faces drought and farming issues
The ongoing Israeli occupation aggression has caused widespread destruction in the agricultural sector across Gaza. The sector's losses have exceeded $3.49 billion, with damage totaling 87.1%. This includes the destruction of approximately 158,909 dunams of agricultural land, the collapse of water and irrigation systems, and the destruction of thousands of wells, water reservoirs, and transmission lines. As a result, there has been a severe shortage of agricultural production and a surge in vegetable prices, with some types reaching exorbitant levels. Many citizens are forced to rely on canned vegetables or imports. This destruction is part of the occupation’s policy aimed at destroying normal life and focusing on the destruction of the environment and agriculture in the sector, thereby worsening the suffering of the population and threatening food security.
