"In Wadi al-Khalil, Israelis are doing what they have done for decades in the West Bank. They are doing it without offering us any alternative. We are desperate. We struggle to access water.

We have been seeking a solution for years, hoping for a fair resolution, yet the state has obstructed all our options.”

The far-right Israeli security minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has threatened that Israel will destroy cities and towns in the occupied West Bank in the same way it has in Gaza.
