The Israeli army has begun connecting a desalination plant in the Gaza Strip to their electricity grid in an effort to prevent the spread of diseases and ensure access to clean drinking water for hygiene and disease prevention. This move comes after nearly nine months of offensive and siege against the enclave, during which charges have been brought against Israeli officials for possible war crimes and crimes against humanity. The International Criminal Court has called for the arrest of top leaders, including Netanyahu and the chief prosecutor of Hamas, as Gaza authorities report thousands of deaths as a result of Israeli actions.
Despite this humanitarian crisis, Israel’s Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has criticized the move by the Gaza Electricity Company to restart the desalination plant. He accused the authorities of losing their minds by helping Gaza before disarmament, urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop the rehabilitation process. However, this action may not be enough to quell criticism from those who see it as supporting terrorism through aiding hospitals.
The aim is to make the plant operational as soon as possible, providing clean drinking water for hygiene and disease prevention, which could threaten soldiers and hostages. With tensions high between Israel and Palestine, it remains to be seen how this move will play out in the long run.
