Israel is causing disruption to the sewage system repair efforts in the Gaza Strip, as the five wastewater treatment plants remain out of operation due to the ongoing conflict. Restrictions continue to be imposed on the entry of equipment and fuel necessary for repairs, despite a year having passed since the ceasefire. As a result, approximately 40,000 cubic meters of untreated sewage flow daily into the Mediterranean Sea. There are warnings of potential overflow in the treatment tanks, particularly in the Sheikh Riziwan pond, which holds hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of waste. This poses health risks to thousands of residents in the event of natural disasters such as heavy rains. Despite Israeli authorities being aware of the extent of pollution, restrictions are maintained under the pretext of preventing dual-use equipment from being used to bolster Hamas's military capabilities. This delays the resumption of plant operations and exacerbates environmental pollution and public health risks.
