An international report reveals that 82 percent of Gaza households face water insecurity amid widespread destruction of water and sanitation infrastructure, Shehab Wire reported. The damage has severely curtailed the capacity to provide drinking water and meet household needs across the territory.
The destruction stems from what the report describes as Israel's war in Gaza. Water infrastructure damage has compounded an existing humanitarian crisis in the densely populated enclave.
