QUOTE OF THE DAY: by Mohammed Omer Palestinian officials on Saturday claimed that the Israelis had targeted water wells in different parts of Gaza City, leaving thousands of families without access to clean drinking water. An Oxfam official said going into the weekend that 90 percent of the water in Gaza was already unsafe to drink. The sewerage system is also a target, with Israeli warplanes targeting sewage treatment stations in West Gaza City early on Saturday. The areas most affected are Shati refugee camp, Tal al-Hawa, Sheikh Ejleen and most Western districts, according to Saed al-Din Atbash, head of water facilities at Gaza Municipality. Atbash told reporters in Gaza City that Israel is deliberately targeting the wells. - See more at: middleeasteye.net/news/israeli-jets-destroying-gaza-water-and-sewerage-systems-284613778#sthash.0rEcLgOC.dpuf
