Occupation transforms water into settlement resource
The article addresses the escalation of the Israeli occupation's targeting of water sources in the West Bank, where wells are being demolished, controlled, and workers involved in well rehabilitation projects are being detained. Additionally, settlers are seizing numerous wells, especially in the Hebron and Jordan Valley areas, posing a threat to Palestinian agriculture and livelihoods. Reports indicate that Israel is focusing on using water as a means to expand settlements and enforce annexation realities, controlling over 84% of water sources. Settlers consume approximately 247 liters per day each, while Palestinians consume less than 80 liters—well below the minimum human needs. Israeli policies and actions have led to a severe deterioration of Palestinian water supplies, with growing concerns that water sources are being transformed into tools for pressure, control, and settlement expansion. This situation threatens Palestinians' rights to water and agricultural life.
