Water trucking in Gaza
The Situation
Across Gaza, sources of clean and safe drinking water are extremely scarce. The lack of clean and accessible water across Gaza is rapidly becoming a leading cause of preventable death.
According to statistics, only 10% of Palestinians in Gaza have access to safe drinking water due to high levels of groundwater pollution, wastewater seepage into their main reservoir, and high concentrations of chloride, nitrate, and salinity in Gazan water.
Due to these reasons, 983,623 women and 991,428 children are exposed to numerous public health risks related to poor water quality, poor wastewater collection, and treatment, lack of stormwater infrastructure, and improper hygiene and sanitation practices.
