    According to an Al Jazeera journalist that’s in southern gaza, the water still hasn’t been turned on, despite what Israel said.

    He also said it’s pointless to say that Israel will turn the water back on without restoring the electricity, because electricity is needed to pump the water to Gaza.

    So this just looks like a pr piece by Israel to look like they’re doing something when they’re not.

      Any updates? I’d expect a few hours for everything to be up and running again, but if there’s still nothing, then it’s definitely just for show.

        Al Jazeera has just reported that water is trickling through to a few areas. No other details that I’ve seen yet.

        Edit: it’s only to one area of a Khan Yunis in Gaza. And the infrastructure is destroyed there, so people are unable to get to the water as of yet. Palestinians are also reiterating that without electricity for the water pumps they’re unable to get water from the tanks
