Israel Water Crisis - Part 2

Water Conflict between Israel, Jordan and Palestina:

There is a lack of fresh water in all three countries. The sea of Galilee is the primary source of surface water in the region. 

Israel pumps water out of the lake to supply the dry south of the country with fresh water. 

Palestina is cut from the sea of Galilee and the Jordan river. The people have to rely on ground water and on additional water supply, which is provided by Israel. This gives Israel direct control over how much water Palestina gets.

In Jordan people have access to water only once a week.

West Bank Water Conflict:

Even though there should be enough aquifer in the region to supply water, Palestinien missmanagement led to water shortage. This is why Palestina is dependend on Israel in terms of water. 10% of the population have to buy water from water trucks, which are run by Israeli water companies.
