Warnings of kidney department shutdown – Occupation prevents water transfer to Jenin Hospital

Jenin – Ma’an – Israeli occupation forces prevented water tankers belonging to the Civil Defense in Jenin from reaching Jenin Governmental Hospital on Saturday.

The director of the Civil Defense Center in Jenin, Durgham Zakarneh, said that the occupation army stationed in front of the gate of the government hospital prevented the defense crews from transporting water into the hospital, as the kidney dialysis department needs 100 cups of water per day.

The director of Jenin Governmental Hospital, Wissam Bakr, warned that kidney dialysis services would stop if the occupation continued to prevent the entry of water.

For the fourth consecutive day, Jenin Governmental Hospital suffers from a severe water shortage, due to the destruction of the main water line feeding it as a result of the occupation’s aggression.
