Grassroots Resistance: Challenging Israel's Control of Jordan Valley's Water Resources

In defiance of Israel's increasing harassment of Palestinian water resources in the Jordan Valley, communities have begun to use direct action to challenge the occupation force's apartheid policies. With the help of Jordan Valley Solidarity, several Bedouin communities are in the process of connecting their villages to water supplies by physically taking charge of the situation.
