Gaza City, July 19 (RHC)-- In addition to bombing Gazan homes, Israel’s attack has further decimated a civilian infrastructure already in crisis after years of a crippling blockade. The International Committee of the Red Cross warned the more than week-long Israeli bombings have pushed Gaza to the brink of a new water crisis.
The Red Cross says: "Water is a problem, and it can quickly turn out into a catastrophe. We do have hundreds of thousands of people without water in Gaza. So water repairs have been conducted in very difficult conditions. Water engineers have been killed, and this obviously hampered a lot the work.
The International Red Cross says that Gaza has already a very difficult deteriorating infrastructure, with 1.7 million people living in a very small area. "With all the shelling and the bombings and the fighting going on, it can only get worse."
