The UAE has announced it will launch the largest water supply project from Egypt’s Rafah border to the Gaza Strip, coming as part of its ‘’Operation Chivalrous Knight III’ to provide urgent aid to Gaza, according to a press release.
It is slated to provide up to 15 liters of desalinated water per person daily, benefiting up to 600,000 people in need within Gaza.
The war on Gaza has destroyed up to 80 percent of its water infrastructure, according to the press release.
The press release added that the campaign officially revealed, during a press conference held at the Coastal Municipalities Water Utility (CMWU) headquarters in Deir al-Balah, that construction has begun on the 315 mm water transmission line spanning 6.7 kilometers.
The media director for Operation Chivalrous Knight III in Gaza, Sharif al-Nayrab, said in a statement, “This new water pipeline is more than a rapid response to the urgent thirst crisis in Gaza; it is a continuation of the UAE’s unwavering commitment to supporting the Palestinian people, particularly in the face of the humanitarian disaster caused by war.”
He added that the UAE has spearheaded numerous relief efforts for Gaza, including, “building desalination stations and delivering water tankers to drilling wells and maintaining water networks”.
The Deputy Director-General of the Coastal Municipalities Water Utility for Technical Affairs, Omar Shatat, hailed the UAE’s tireless humanitarian work since the war on Gaza broke out.
A civil society representative in Gaza, Khalil Abu Shammala, also praised the UAE and its vital role in relief efforts, especially through “Operation Chivalrous Knight III”, according to the press release.
