Israel reduces the amount of water allocated to Bethlehem and Hebron

Bethlehem - Ma'an - The Israeli company Mekorot reduced the amounts of water allocated to the Hebron and Bethlehem governorates. The Water Authority announced today that the reduction rate in Deir Shaar's main water source feeding these two governorates reached approximately 35%. The Water Authority also explained that the Mekorot Company completely stopped pumping water for several continuous hours, which negatively affected the southern region in general and the Hebron Governorate and its south in particular, as this reduction led to an exacerbation of the crisis in many communities, which became difficult to provide them with the prescribed rations as a result of this.
