From Middle East Monitor:
Israel yesterday opened one of the gates of its rainwater stores east of Gaza, allowing rainwater to flood large swathes of Palestinian land, Ma’an reported.This absurd accusation was popular a few years ago. In 2015 AFP even published the accusations. Juan Cole and HRW's Sarah Leah Whitson doubled down. But when the truth was pointed out, AFP didn't just issue a correction, but it published a full debunking of the libel and made an accompanying video showing it was a complete lie.
The Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture said in a statement that the water drowned “hundreds of dunams of agricultural lands and damaged barley and wheat crops.”
According to the statement, the water storage area was located in the east of Shuja’iyya neighbourhood in the east of Gaza city.
The accusation of Israel opening floodgates has since died down - until now.
(The Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture referred to is the Hamas version, not the PA version. )
But then Middle East Monitor goes even further
Israel builds a number of reservoirs to stop rainwater from running through the Gaza valleys in winter. These prevent Palestinians in the enclave from storing rainwater to irrigate their crops and to fill underground wells.Israel builds reservoirs in the desert just to deprive Palestinians of rainwater??
Just more lies about Israel being reported and retweeted by the usual crowd of Israel haters.
