The Thirst Crisis in Gaza: A Struggle for Survival

 

The Gaza Strip faces an escalating water crisis, with clean sources becoming increasingly scarce due to ongoing conflict and infrastructure damage. Hundreds of thousands of residents have lost access to clean water after the destruction of pipelines and wells during military offensives. Many are forced to walk long distances to fill containers from the few remaining wells, which often fail to provide safe drinking water.

The Coastal Aquifer Basin, Gaza's only natural water source, is severely depleted and polluted, rendering up to 97% of its water unfit for human consumption. Desalination plants and sanitation facilities have also been heavily damaged, leaving the population with limited options. The daily water supply has dropped to an average of 3-5 liters per person, far below the minimum needed for basic survival.

This crisis highlights the urgent need for humanitarian aid and sustainable solutions to ensure access to clean water for Gaza's 2.3 million residents. Without immediate intervention, the situation could worsen, threatening lives and livelihoods across the region.
