Israel's Civil Administration imposed a NIS 100 million fine on the Palestinian Authority for systematic water theft in Judea and Samaria. Authorities disconnected hundreds of illegal connections and drilling sites in a large-scale enforcement campaign.
The Civil Administration, Israel's governing body in Judea and Samaria, announced a NIS 100 million fine against the Palestinian Authority for large-scale water theft. Officials said the enforcement operation targeted illegal water infrastructure, disconnecting hundreds of unauthorized connections and boreholes that diverted water from regional aquifers. The move is among the largest financial penalties imposed on the PA in recent years, reflecting a stepped-up Israeli policy on water resource protection in the area.
