| ABSTRACT: | Israeli control over water resources and services favor the growth of Israeli agriculture and industry at the expense of these sectors of the Palestinian economy. Palestinian households also suffer from poor quality water which do not always meet the specifications of international health organizations and from Israeli restrictions limiting consumption. Military orders and obstacles obstructing the provision of quality drinking water and sufficient quantities for agriculture and industry are analyzed. |
