JORDAN VALLEY, Thursday, May 12, 2022 (WAFA) – Israeli forces today destroyed a water collection pond in Marj Na‘ja locality in the northern Jordan Valley, according to a local activist.
Aref Daraghmeh, a human rights activist, said that Israeli forces escorted a bulldozer into the locality, northeast of al-Zubaidat village, north of Jericho, where the heavy machinery leveled a water collection pond, which has a capacity of 9,000 cubic meters, owned by a local farmer.
Israel does not allow Palestinians to collect rainwater to use for irrigation and for their livestock.
