In the occupied West Bank, Palestinians have no control over ‘one drop of water’: Analysis
Jad Isaac, director of the Applied Research Institute of Jerusalem (ARIJ), a Palestinian environmental NGO based in Bethlehem, said the Palestinian water authority has no authority over “one drop of water”.“All the water in the West Bank and Gaza is under the control of the Israeli army, and this has been going on since 1967,” Isaac told Al Jazeera.
“We are not allowed to dig wells or install a water pipe without permission from the Israelis. The quotas allocated to us by the Israeli army is hardly enough to meet the needs of the Palestinians.”
His comments come as Palestinians in the occupied West Bank say attacks by Israelis from illegal settlements on water supplies are making it harder to stay in their villages.
Isaac said when the Zionist movement began in 1948, “They clearly started preparing for the division of Palestine based on hydrological grounds and not ideological or historic grounds.”
So far, there have been more than 45 attacks on Palestinian springs, Isaac said.
