  2. Gaza: water crisis grows as Israel targets essential infrastructure
    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2014
    Israel's war on Gaza has seen the systematic and widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure essential for human survival. This represents an apparently deliberate 'cutting off of life support' to those that survive the bombardment now under way.
  3. How Israel Uses Water as a Weapon of War
    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2016
    Entire communities in the West Bank either have no access to water or have had their water supply reduced almost by half. This alarming development has been taking place for weeks, since Israel’s national water company, "Mekorot", decided to cut off – or significantly reduce – its water supply to Jenin, Salfit and many villages around Nablus, among other regions. Israel has been 'waging a water war' against Palestinians.

    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2004

  5. Think California's drought is bad? Try Palestine's
    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2015
