This video is 2 years old and will always be heart breaking.
A highly distressed five-year-old Palestinian boy sees his father arrested for stealing water and dragged away by soldiers.
Hashem Abu Maria, of the Defence For Children International charity, said it was obvious the child thought his father would never return.
CLEAN WATER FOR ALL. TAKE THE POLITICS & THE POLLUTION OUT OF WATER.
A devastating portrait of Israel’s stranglehold over Palestinian water resources. Stark figures present that three million Palestinians who live in the West Bank only have access to 15 per cent of the water contained in the aquifers beneath their territory.

This film reports that 56 water springs in the West Bank in the vicinity of Israeli settlements have become the target of settler activities. Three-quarters of the springs are reportedly taken-over and Palestinians have been deterred from accessing the area by acts of threat and intimidation

Israel has pledged to release about 1 billion cubic feet of water to restore the biblical Jordan River. Israel, Syria and Jordan have diverted nearly all of the river’s fresh water and the trickle that remains is mostly raw sewage.
Last year, Israel began building a $106 million complex to remove the sewage water and treat it for agricultural use. But that would have left the river dry. In a statement, Environment Minister Gilad Erdan promised to start replacing the sewage with clean water in 2013, saying it will “allow life to return to the river.” Environmentalist Gideon Bromberg said that the promised amount is less than a 10th of what is needed to fully restore the river.

A short video from the Israeli Water Authority explaining how Israel uses desalination techniques to increase the amount of drinkable water available in a sustainable manner. Advanced technology to make sea water drinkable.
We’re a 71% blue planet but only 3% of the water is drinkable.
