<p>GAZA, (PIC)</p>



<p>The spokesman for the Gaza Municipality, Asem Al-Nabih, said that 
water reaches only 40% of the total area of the city, stressing that 
“the displaced are suffering to access water.”</p>



<p>With the continued Israeli siege on the northern Gaza Strip, the 
drinking water crisis has become more serious, as many families in Gaza 
City struggle every day to obtain a bucket of water, while accessing 
safe and clean drinking water has become the greatest hope that is 
difficult to achieve.</p>



<p>Al-Nabih explained in press statements on Monday that the quantities 
of water that reach citizens are very limited and do not meet all daily 
needs.</p>



<p>He pointed out that more than 75% of water wells in Gaza City have 
been completely or partially damaged, in addition to the damage of more 
than 100 linear meters of water networks, making the process of 
delivering water to all areas impossible.</p>



<p>Al-Nabih warned that the lack of sufficient water quantities leads to
 the spread of epidemics and diseases, especially skin diseases.</p>



<p>In a previous report, the Gaza Municipality said that the Israeli 
occupation army destroyed about 126 water and sewage service vehicles, 
equivalent to 80% of the municipality’s vehicles, especially those 
related to waste collection, sewage treatment and water services.</p>



<p>The Municipality appealed to international organizations and UN 
institutions to urgently contribute to solving the water crisis in the 
city, by increasing the quantities of fuel to increase wells’ operation 
hours in addition to bringing in the necessary heavy machinery and 
equipment to maintain water lines and networks.</p>
