Palestinians collect water from a water tap, amid drinking water shortages, in Khan Younis, Gaza Strip.
“This will push the civilian population to the southern Strip,” Katz said in a statement, a week after Israel had stopped supplying water to the entire territory as part of a “complete siege” on the Palestinian enclave. US National security advisor Jake Sullivan earlier said that Israel told him it had turned the water supply back on in southern Gaza.
The municipality of Beni Suheila in southern Gaza later confirmed that the water supply had been resumed to the village.
