Original Note:
This is not a war crime. c.90% of Gaza's water is from ground wells. Israel was providing c.7% pre-war; this was extra to their responsibilities after 2005 withdrawal. The pipes were temporarily turned off; 2 of 3 have been restarted, 3rd was hot by a failed bomb. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12633015/amp/gaza-water-israel-palestine-war-president-joe-biden-benjamin-netanyahu.html https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/israel-hamas-war-gaza-conflict/card/israel-resumes-water-service-in-southern-gaza-white-house-says-IdRPQR2bPiCETZbmNm27 https://www.britannica.com/event/Israels-disengagement-from-Gaza
