In addition to the poor quality of water, only a quarter of households receive running water every day, during several hours only.
The permanent electricity crisis means that water can frequently not be pumped and many Palestinian households must buy expensive bottled water.
“There is no water at all. I don’t even find a drop to wash my face,” Gaza student and writer Malaka Mohammed tweeted yesterday. “As a result [I] had to buy it!”on Twitter
Today in #Gaza. Three scenes I saw. There is no water at all. I don’t even find a drop to wash my face. I, as a result, had to buy it!
— Malaka Mohammed (@MalakaMohammed) September 7, 2013Life conditions for Gaza’s almost 1.7 million residents have deteriorated sharply since the 3 July military coup in Egypt.
Since the coup, the Egyptian military regime has destroyed dozens of underground tunnels that have provided the only alternative route into Gaza for many basic supplies banned or severely restricted by the Israeli siege.

So why have you not updated this blog with the updated information from Oxfam as reported by The Electronic Intifada, which is that Ben Phillips blamed Israel in error, when in fact the delay is actually due to the manufacturer of the chlorometre?
Or does that not suit your anti-Semitic agenda?
The reason why is obvious from the incendiary, hate-inspired “headline” he has chosen about Israel deciding to poison Gaza’s water. He is motivated by anti-semitic convictions.
Oh, this is just another Nazi site – check “How Israel stole 16 trillion dollars from the USA” and similar filth on here – ignore, ignore, ignore…
I am only interested in one thing. Did they poison the water or not? If they have done so, by not permitting purifiers, then the facts stand for themselves. Call me any names you like.
Same goes for the theft of $16 trillion. Did they steal it or not? No one’s stopping you from answering the question.
Why the need for a chlorometere? No doubt the Israelis insisted on one.
“Call me any names you like.”
I think “idiot” and “liar” will suffice.
Looks like Howard from the Big Bang Theory and his mates are hitting the keypad with all these anti-semite accusations, next thing you’ll be called a “denier” lol
Dont you like Arabs Tap? 😉
Hi Anonymous,
I called your buddy Tap an IDIOT and a LIAR. If you want to project anything else you think I’m thinking about him (which would also be asinine and false because neither of us know each other), that’s your problem.
