Gaza, MINA – The Israeli occupation army has intensified its attacks on humanitarian infrastructure in the Gaza Strip, this time targeting water distribution tankers, the only lifeline for hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians amid the total collapse of official water networks, Quds Press reported on Tuesday.
In the latest attack, Israeli warplanes bombed a water tanker in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza on Monday morning. The attack destroyed the vehicle and killed its driver, Ramez al-Majdalawi, who was distributing drinking water to displaced families in the camp.
This assault followed a massacre that claimed the lives of ten people, including six children, and wounded twenty others when an Israeli airstrike targeted a water distribution point in the New Camp area of Nuseirat.
In southern Gaza, eyewitnesses told Quds Press that an Israeli drone targeted a water well in the al-Buraq area west of Khan Yunis, which had been designated a “humanitarian zone.” The drone strike completely destroyed the well and its solar power system, further exacerbating the water crisis in the governorate, which now shelters over one million displaced Palestinians.
