Egyptian influx triggers water crisis in Israel
Israeli media reported that a wave of water turbidity arrived from the Egyptian coasts, leading to the shutdown of most desalination plants along the Mediterranean coast. It is believed that the cause is a widespread proliferation of microscopic algae originating from the Nile Delta region. The crisis has resulted in reduced irrigation activities, agricultural operations, and public water usage, with warnings of potential disruptions in supplies to provinces including Jerusalem and Rehovot. Residents have been advised to conserve water. In the south, reports warn of a threat to approximately 20,000 dunams of vegetable crops in the Nitza area, with concerns over losses amounting to millions of shekels and the impact on the production of around two million tons of vegetables if the crisis continues.
