Israel Lays New Water Pipeline to Gaza, the Largest Yet
(Times of Israel) Israel's national water company Mekorot has begun work on an upgraded pipeline to increase the flow of drinkable water to Gaza. There are three pipelines currently carrying fresh water from Israel into Gaza. In agreements with the Palestinians, Israel committed to transferring 10 million cubic meters of water each year to Gaza, but in practice transfers a bit more, 11.5 million cubic meters. The new pipeline will be the largest yet, and will run alongside one of the old pipes.
