Israel Reconnects Desalination Plant to Gaza Strip Amid Conflict and Humanitarian Crisis

After nine months of military offensive and siege, Israeli authorities have started connecting a desalination plant in the Gaza Strip to their electricity grid. This move is aimed at providing drinking water to the enclave and promoting hygiene and disease prevention for the safety of soldiers and hostages. The desalination plant has been restarted by the Gaza Electricity Company in the Saladin Road area.

However, Israel’s Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has criticized this decision, stating that they are rehabilitating Gaza before disarmament, especially focusing on hospitals, which he referred to as centers of terrorism. He urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to rethink this strategy.

The conflict between Israel and Palestine has led to a humanitarian crisis in Gaza due to the military offensive and siege imposed by Israel after attacks by Hamas and other Palestinian factions. The situation has led to accusations of possible war crimes and crimes against humanity against Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and other Israeli officials.

The International Criminal Court has also called for arrest warrants to be issued against top leaders of both Israel and Hamas due to their actions in the conflict. Over 37,900 deaths have been reported in Gaza, and more than 550 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank and East Jerusalem due to Israeli forces’ operations or attacks by settlers.
