Israeli authorities are using access to water as a weapon against Palestinians, including by systematically depriving people in Gaza of water in a campaign of collective punishment, according to a report released today by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).

MSF calls on Israeli authorities to immediately restore unhindered access to water, sanitation, and hygiene for Gaza’s 2.1 million residents. Israel's allies, including the United States, must use their leverage to pressure Israel to do so. 

Deliberately denying Palestinians access to water is an integral part of Israel’s genocide. Through data and medical testimonies, the MSF report, “Water as a Weapon: Israel’s Destruction and Deprivation of Water and Sanitation in Gaza,” documents how the weaponization of water by Israeli authorities is not an isolated act, but part of a recurrent, systematic, and cumulative pattern. The denial of access  to water is occurring alongside the direct and continued killing of civilians, the devastation of health facilities, and the flattening of homes, which has caused mass displacement. Together, these actions constitute a deliberate infliction of destructive and inhumane conditions on Palestinians in Gaza.

Israeli authorities know that without water life ends, yet they have deliberately and systematically obliterated water infrastructure in Gaza — while consistently blocking water-related supplies from entering.
