JERICHO, April 26, 2025 (WAFA) – A group of Israeli colonists cut water pipelines on Saturday evening that supply drinking water to Palestinian homes in the village of Al-Auja, north of Jericho in the occupied West Bank, according to local sources.
Hassan Mleihat, General Supervisor of the Al-Baydar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, a local anti-colonization group, told WAFA that Israeli colonists drove provocatively through the area in their vehicles before deliberately cutting pipes that transport water from the Al-Auja spring to residents' homes.
Mleihat stated that the attack is part of a broader, systematic campaign aimed at forcibly displacing Palestinian residents from their land. He described it as a deliberate escalation in efforts to empty the region of its indigenous population.
