Monitoring attacks on key water lines
The Ministry of Water and Irrigation / Water Authority conducted a crackdown on violations against water sources in the areas of Mafraq, Qatrana, and Al Thalil. Illegal withdrawals of hundreds of cubic meters daily were taking place to supply farms and ponds, which disrupted regular water access for citizens and affected the distribution of water supplies in these regions. The operation was carried out during an inspection campaign involving the Internal Control Unit staff, the Jordan Water Company "Miyahana," with assistance from the Public Security Directorate and the Royal Environment Protection and Tourism Department. Several water lines used unlawfully were seized, including a two-inch diameter line supplying a farm and used for illegal water sales, as well as large extensions that supplied more than a hundred unserved properties with water. The Ministry affirmed that these campaigns are part of its efforts to control water sources and prevent violations. It also stated that it will continue enforcing the law to prevent the recurrence of such breaches.
