<p>The Israeli authorities, on Sunday, <a
href="http://imemc.org/article/israeli-forces-destroy-palestinian-owned-water-well/">demolished</a>
a water well in the village of al-Zawiyah in Salfit,
central occupied West Bank, and delivered demolition
notices to others.</p>
<p>The mayor of al-Zawiyah, Mohmoud Muqdadi, told Quds
News Network (QNN) that “over 100 Israeli soldiers
accompanied by bulldozers demolished a water well owned
by Muath Musleh, and notified locals of the occupation
state’s plans to demolish 10 other water wells.”</p>
<p>“The villagers gathered in the area, resulting in the
prevention of the occupation forces from carrying out
the demolitions,” added Muqdadi, stating that soldiers
announced their plans to return to demolish the rest of
the wells.</p>
<p>Muqdadi also stressed that “the local community will
continue to protest, as they have done in the past, to
prevent the occupation forces from demolishing water
wells.” The villagers have organized protests that
prevented the occupation authorities from building the
apartheid wall on the village’s land.</p>
<p>“The locals of al-Zawiya, as well as the municipality,
are determined to continue construction and cultivation
in order to prevent the occupation state from
confiscating it”, Muqdadi said. </p>
<blockquote>
<p>“If they demolish a water well, we will build
another,” he concluded.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Important to note that <a
href="https://undocs.org/en/A/RES/64/292">Resolution
64/292</a> of the United Nations General Assembly
recognizes the human right to water and sanitation, and
acknowledges that clean drinking water and sanitation
are <strong>essential</strong> to the realisation of
all human rights.</p>
