Bedouins in the Jordan Valley live under extremely difficult conditions because two thirds of villages suffer from complete water shortage, Al-Maleh Village Council has said. The head of the council, Aref Daraghmeh, said that residents are obliged to travel all day outside the Valley to bring small quantities of water for their children, cattle and household uses. "This kind of suffering is increasing," he said. Daraghmeh said that most of the springs in the area were drained by the Israeli occupation while water pipes owned by Mekerot, which supplies large Israeli settlements in the area with water, lie beside their houses.
