What happened

Well supportedReported by 15 independent outlets

The Board of Peace and representatives of Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to set up a working group to address sanitation and public health issues affecting both Israel and the Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, Israeli forces eliminated a Hamas commander in Gaza City, who was reportedly involved in holding hostages. The destruction of infrastructure in the Gaza Strip forces untreated sewage into the Mediterranean Sea, impacting Israeli coastal waters.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The environmental consequences of the conflict in the Gaza Strip are directly affecting Israeli public health and industry. Untreated sewage from the Gaza Strip is contaminating the Mediterranean, which in turn forces the Ashkelon desalination plant to shut down multiple times.
