Israeli attacks in Gaza have rendered about 85 per cent of the enclave’s water and sanitation facilities fully or partially inoperative, Al Jazeera reports citing the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics.
As a result, Gaza’s water supply has fallen by 65pc since the start of the invasion, leaving residents with just three to five litres (0.7 to 1.3 gallons) per person daily, reports the bureau.
This falls far below the World Health Organisation’s minimum humanitarian standard for emergencies, set at 15 litres (nearly 4 gallons) per person per day.
