The water crisis in northern Gaza is worsening, with Israeli forces destroying all water wells, according to the Northern Gaza Emergency Committee. Trucks from Gaza City are delivering water, but supplies are insufficient. Residents, including children and the elderly, struggle to obtain even a single gallon. The contaminated water mixed with sewage poses severe health risks, causing widespread illness. In Jabalia refugee camp, the wait for water is long, and the limited supply exacerbates famine and deprivation. The destruction of wells and water infrastructure intensifies the suffering of northern Gaza residents.
