BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- The Palestinian Authority is working to implement a three-stage plan to solve the water crisis in Gaza after Israel's assault caused over $34.5 million worth of damages to water networks.
Deputy head of Gaza's water authority, Ribhi al-Sheikh, told Ma'an that the first stage will include a six-month humanitarian intervention to deliver clean drinking water to homeless Gazans and those displaced during Israeli attacks.
The second stage will require rebuilding damaged water networks and reservoirs, which will take over a year if the Gaza crossings operate on current levels of construction material allowed in.
The third stage will be to build water treatment and desalination plants, which would cost in the region of $800 million. more
