displaced Palestinian Hanan Al-Shafi’i ‘Umm Adl’, 30, a mother
to nine children, showering one of her children, at their
shelter in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza Strip, 21 March 2024. Hanan
said that she and her children have been displaced twice within
Khan Yunis since the outbreak of the conflict. With no access to
fresh water, her children walk long distances to fetch water to
meet their daily needs of 40 liters of clean water for drinking
and cooking and 70 liters for washing and personal hygiene.

   
According to the United Nations, the majority of people in the
Gaza Strip face dire water and sanitation conditions as WASH
(water, sanitation, hygiene) facilities that provide basic
services have been damaged or destroyed. Since 07 October 2023,
up to 1.9 million people have been displaced throughout the Gaza
Strip, according to UNRWA, which added that most civilians in
Gaza are in ‘desperate need of humanitarian assistance and
protection’. World Water Day, which is held annually on 22
March, focuses on the importance of global access to safe and
clean water. This year’s theme is ‘Leveraging Water for Peace’.
