Israel facing water shortages caused by destruction of Gaza's treatment plants
The Guardian · conflict · Gaza · September 24, 2026
Five desalination plants shut down for days, while Gaza remains in grip of severe water and sanitation crisis.
Israel is facing weeks of water shortages after an exceptional algae bloom crippled much of its desalination capacity, in a crisis scientists say was triggered when Israeli attacks destroyed much of Gaza's wastewater infrastructure, causing a massive discharge of untreated sewage.
"Pollution does not recognise political borders," said the Zalul Environmental Association, an Israeli NGO dedicated to protecting the country's seas and shores.
"The discharge of untreated sewage from the Gaza Strip into the sea is contributing to the worsening crisis affecting the Israeli desalination facilities.
The wastewater contains nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, which feed microalgae and cyanobacteria and may intensify their blooms.".
