Authorities Overlook Desalination Plant Closure
The Israeli occupation failed to resolve the issue of malfunctions in the water desalination plants within occupied Palestine. The Water Authority experimented with a failed method by dispersing chemical substances, including copper sulfate and aluminum, in an attempt to eliminate the algae responsible for the malfunctions. This experiment resulted in pollution of the marine environment without clarifying its impacts, especially since copper can harm ecological balance and may lead to the continued proliferation or resistance of algae, threatening the sustainability of the already declining water sources in the region. Israel faces a long-term crisis due to the increasing occurrence of algal blooms, which cause desalination plants to malfunction and exacerbate the already critical water shortages. The government has attempted to purchase expensive membranes to mitigate the damage but without definitive success, highlighting significant environmental challenges that threaten the security of water supplies.
