Again, and again, Israel uses water as a weapon

The demolitions of water supply infrastructure are severe and unrelenting:

"Israel, which has controlled most water sources in the West Bank since it occupied it nearly fifty years ago, disregards the severe water shortage suffered by Palestinians and promotes projects that can alleviate it only when they involve improvements to settlement infrastructure. At the same time, Israel demolishes every water supply system that Palestinians try to erect themselves in Area C, subjecting them to intolerable living conditions in order to force them out of the area."

Israel demolishes infrastructure, leaving Palestinian farmers without water for domestic and agricultural needs
